Note for students on the subject of the corona virus
In principle, the risk to the health of the population in Germany from the new respiratory disease from China is currently still considered to be low. In this respect, there is currently nothing to prevent normal university operations.
For students planning a stay in China: The Foreign Office expressly warns against travel to the Chinese province of Hubei. For the time being, we advise against unnecessary travel to the rest of the territory of the People's Republic of China, with the exception of the Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macao. If required, the International Office is available for advice on the implementation of study-related stays in China(guttenhoefer[at]uni-kassel[dot]de).
After your return from China: If you develop a fever, cough or shortness of breath within 14 days of your return - avoid unnecessary contact, - or stay at home if possible, - should you require medical attention, seek medical attention after calling and mentioning your trip.
