LiU guidelines and decisions

(Edited 10 March 2021)

At Linköping University, restrictions apply in accordance with the national restrictions aimed at stopping the spread of Covid-19. LiU’s restrictions apply until 30 June. Linköping University is currently at Level 4, which means “Active pandemic with extensive restrictions and large effects on LiU activities”. This means, among other things, that we are not to be on campus for work or study, unless it is absolutely necessary.
