Concerning the lecturing, teaching activities at Heideberg University:
"The current version of the Coronavirus Ordinance on Degree-related Operations issued by the State of Baden-Württemberg sets out reliable general conditions for its universities to resume work on campus on the basis of the “3G” rule – vaccinated, recovered or tested. The ordinance applies of Tuesday 24 August 2021. Heidelberg University will therefore offer as many on-campus lectures/classes as possible, but at the same time continue with online formats until further notice". (HD University)
Heidelberg University is now trying to offer as many face-to-face events in small groups – from laboratory courses to colloquia for examination candidates.
Large-scale lecture courses will take place digitally. As far as is technically and organisationally possible, lectures will be available to students as a combination of physical events and digital formats.
