As of 7 March 2022, Tampere Universities returned to in-person teaching. However, teaching can also be delivered in a remote or hybrid format for pedagogical reasons.

The regional pandemic steering group decided on 26 April 2022 that the recommendation on the use of face masks that will be put in place across the Tampere region will be largely similar to the recommendation issued by the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare (THL). Tampere Universities have adjusted their own recommendation accordingly. All the members of the Tampere Universities community are free to decide whether to wear a face mask to protect themselves, for example, in crowded public transport and indoor settings where social distancing is difficult.

If you arrive in Finland follow the instructions provided by the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) and the Finnish Border Guard.
