Dear students at the Faculty of Medicine,

We live in a time of much unrest in the world. Threat situations can also arise in Norway, such as last week. I would like to give you some brief, general information about how we at the faculty handles such situations.

First, I would like to emphasize that all our students and staff should feel safe, respected and included, regardless of background, nationality, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

I would also like to assure you that the university is in regular contact with the authorities, the police and others about the general security situation and various threat assessments. Sometimes the university also takes measures, although this is often not announced. If special precautions are needed, information will be provided about this.

I would also like to remind you that anyone can contact the university's Security Operation Center, either if something should happen or if you fee...

Hi,

It is slippery outside, and many people use ice cleats or studded winter boots to stay on their feet.

We have received feedback that some are using their ice cleats indoors when going to and from their offices or reading rooms. The spikes can cause damage to the floor, so we kindly request that employees and students remove and put on their ice cleats in the entrance area.

Kind regards,
The Estate Department

Dear bachelor and master students at the Faculty of Medicine,

The end of this semester was not quite as we had hoped, but we are happy that we were able to complete most of the teaching and exams.

Specific information is provided on the individual course page.

Dear students and colleagues,

Following the reopening of Norwegian society, the Faculty of Medicine will return to ordinary, in-person teaching as soon as possible.

However, it can take up to two weeks to get all schedules updated and the classrooms ready.
