CURRENT UPDATES
Dear students,
Due to the COVID19 pandemic, planning for the winter semester can currently only be viewed with caution. The rules for the winter semester are currently (16.10.2020) that courses are to take place both in attendance and in digital form.
All participants in attendance courses must be prepared to switch over to digital teaching at short notice if this is decided by the university management. Information about this and the conditions of participation can be obtained from the respective lecturers. In order to await current developments, you will probably receive information on the individual courses only shortly before the start of the lecture period. Therefore, please check your student email regularly!
As long as no new guidelines are available, the following applies to the department:
• In order to prevent the social life at the institute from completely disappearing, we still think it would be desirable if the planned attendance events could take place.
• If there are good reasons against classroom teaching, lecturers can decide to switch to digital teaching. It is up to the lecturers to judge what are good reasons. Tutors should only make this decision in consultation with the responsible lecturers.
In cases where individual students cannot participate in class because they belong to a risk group or have close contact with people who belong to a risk group, there is the possibility to broadcast the event via Zoom or Skype Professional. Our institute has purchased a video conferencing system for this purpose. If you are unable to attend in person, it would be nice if you could contact the responsible lecturers in good time before the start of the semester to clarify the details.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
Take care of yourself and your fellow human beings!
Boris Nieswand
Head of the department 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]
