Hurrah! Full Classrooms! |
|
|
|
We are nearly back to normal, but not quite. The most important rule that is still being enforced is that we limit contact between student and healthcare staff in our hospital. This means that students are not yet allowed back into the hospital. Also, It’s still important to self-test frequently. |

Self-tests available at MFAS |
|
|
|
We are happy to be able to make use of the faculty again. To continue to do so in the most safe way possible, there are (free) self-tests handed out in the MFAS room. This room is located in the hallway on the right to the Albert Heijn to- go store on the J-square. Opening hours are from 9.00 am till 17.00 on week days. Hopefully we’ll see you there. |

Virtual Study Abroad Fair, Saturday, 30th of October |
|
|
|
The UvA Study Abroad Fair will be held online this year on Saturday 30 October. During this event, you'll be introduced to the opportunities the UvA offers to spend a part of your studies abroad. Although the coronavirus still presents challenges for student mobility in 2021-2022, the UvA and her partners haven't been sitting around. Preparations for the Erasmus and Global Exchange Programme that started in September 2022, are in full swing.
Join the Study Abroad Fair and learn about exchange programmes, internships and research abroad, summer schools and various other programmes (including virtual experiences) that can provide you with an international learning experience. The event starts with an energetic kick-off at 12 pm on Saturday 30 October. The International office of the Amsterdam UMC hospital will be joining in. How about you? |

The Student Council will be focussing on communication, transparency from the SR and on the mental health of students. They will also be imagining a post Covid 19 world.
