IMPORTANT INFORMATION
As of May 6th, 2020, the institute library will be open again during the regular opening hours, from 9 am to 4.45 pm (maximum number of 10 users). For the use of the library the distancing rules and mask obligation apply. Cloths for cleaning workstations and keyboards are available.
IMPORTANT: DURING THE LECTURE BREAK (2nd until 5th June) THE LIBRARY WILL BE OPEN FROM 1pm until 5pm ONLY
Therefore the entrance door to the institute is open again with immediate effect. However, the secretariats can still only be reached by email until further notice, office hours are no longer applicable. The opening hours of the Hegelbau are: from 8h to 18h.
However, from 8th June onwards the building will return to its usual opening times again, 8am until 10pm.
CURRENT UPDATES
According to the state's Corona Ordinance of 22 March 2020, university operations have been suspended until 19 April 2020. However, there is a risk that the closure phase will be extended. (https://uni-tuebingen.de/universitaet/infos-zum-coronavirus/coronavirus-hinweise-fuer-studierende/)
The Institute of Sociology has prepared itself and decided to start the online teaching on 20th April in a coordinated way. The possibility of acquiring certificates of achievement will thus also be guaranteed in this summer semester. How the communication in the events will be organized will be communicated to you by the respective organizers before the first meeting date. Changes to courses will be announced via the university's alma system. However, please also check your student email accounts regularly.
Due to the closing of the university, libraries and supervision tasks, the deadlines for submission of coursework or BA/MA theses will be extended. If the submission date of the paper is within the period from 16.3. to 20.4.2020, the processing time will be extended by a flat rate of five weeks. This also applies if the processing time started before 16.3. and the submission date is after 20.4.2020. (If necessary, the deadlines will be extended accordingly in the event of further closures). Coursework can be handed in via e-mail. In the case of final papers, the formal route with a print version must also be followed.
At present, there are efforts, for example at the German Rectors' Conference, to treat the current semester as a "non-semester" in which some studies can be taken but which at the same time does not count as a full study semester (for Bafög, standard study periods, etc.). Whether this will happen has not yet been decided. However, we at the Institute of Sociology are making every effort to ensure that you as students do not suffer any disadvantages from the current crisis. However, I also ask for your understanding and patience if things run more disorderly and chaotic in the coming weeks than we would all like.
Stay healthy and take care of your fellow human beings!
Boris Nieswand (Director Institute of Sociology)
Founded in 1960 by the renowned sociologist Ralf Dahrendorf , the Department of Sociology has developed since then into a modern center of sociological teaching and research in which six professors examine current social issues. What they have in commonis is their empirical focus. [Read on]
