We are following the hygiene and safety regulations and ensuring additional cleaning of the UvA buildings.

All the buildings on the Roeterseiland Campus comply with the stricter ventilation guidelines of the RIVM.

In order to properly manage the flow of people in the buildings, we have implemented routing with stickers.

Hosts are present on the campus to help you find the right route to your destination.

Cleaning agents are provided in the work, research and learning spaces. There are disinfection points at the entrances to the buildings and toilet blocks.

The restaurants are open, but work differently than you are used to. There are Grab&Go points to avoid queues as much as possible. Food is packaged as much as possible.

The opening hours of the buildings have been extended. Due to the limited use of the buildings, the opening hours may be changed again in the future. Keep an eye on the opening hours.

As  a student, you only have access if you have a lecture or do not have an alternative place to study at home or elsewhere and you have a booked study place at the University Library. None of the other study places are in use. Please note that there is a limit to the number of people allowed in the buildings. We will take measures if things get too busy and the occupancy rate needs to be adjusted.

If you or any of your household members have health issues such as a cold, blocked or runny nose, sneezing, sore throat, shortness of breath, slight cough, a temperature of 38 degrees Celsius or fever, please stay home.

Before you leave home, check if there are any important updates.

Coming to the campus by bicycle, moped/scooter or on foot allows us to relieve the strain on public transport. Different routes also apply temporarily to the bicycle parks on the campus. Follow the directions.

Use your student ID card to check in and out of the buildings. That way, we will know how many people are in the buildings. When checking people in and out, only the numbers are counted and no personal data is stored. If you have not yet uploaded your passport photo or do not (yet) have a student ID card, you can sort this out now via MijnUvApas.

Before coming to the campus, contact your study adviser, so that we can help you with the route and use of the lifts.

• Study advisers for the Faculty of Economics and Business
• Study advisers for the Faculty of Law
• Study advisers for the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences

If you are unable to study at home, you can book a study place. Study places are only available at the University Library and can only be used with a valid booking.

Give each other space when passing and moving around in the various rooms.

Washing or disinfecting your hands on a regular basis will help you to eliminate as many bacteria as possible.

Don’t sneeze and cough in your hand; instead, use your arm or elbow.

• Where specified, comply with one-way traffic and separate entrances and exits.
• Please note the maximum occupancy in a room and comply with it. 

Do not use the lifts. Keep the lifts available for disabled people and goods transport.

You will be nicely on time and not too early if you arrive at the room where you need to be 5 to 10 minutes in advance. Please take into account any waiting time required to enter the building.

At the end of your lecture, leave the buildings immediately if you do not have any other lectures to attend. Don't hang around. This will allow the other teaching to continue unimpeded in accordance with the RIVM guidelines.

Go outside the building and well away from the entrance, so that you do not obstruct other people’s access to the building. Maintain 1.5 metres distance, even outside. Please note that with effect from 1 August 2020, a smoking ban applies to the entire Roeterseiland Campus.

Do not leave any papers, food leftovers or other rubbish after use. Cleaning agents are provided in the work and learning rooms, so that you can clean your space beforehand. Also be sure to clean materials/equipment before and after use.

Follow the instructions of the hosts and help to monitor your own health and safety together with that of students and colleagues. If people fail to comply with the rules, we will report this to the dean or the director.

Don't feel safe? Do you have tips and recommendations? Contact the reception, the Service Point in the central hall (ground floor) of building A/B/C or the hosts.

Stay informed via the RIVM.

Now more than ever, we are relying on everyone’s sense of responsibility and cooperation.
