Dear Partners,

 

Under the current circumstances and due to the latest developments in the COVID-19 pandemic, we would like to thank you for all the assistance you are giving to our students and to give you an update on our institution’s situation.

 

At the moment there are no confirmed cases in our community (among the students nor among the staff).

 

However, the Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France, following French President Mr Macron's directives, has decided to:

• Close access to the university to all students, and suspend face-to-face classes until further notice.

• Deliver online courses, from the 18th of March, through e-learning platforms, also for international students.

• Accept and give assistance to every international exchange student who ask us to return to their home country. Home universities of these students will receive a specific email later on.

The International Office will remain operational and continue to provide support to incoming students, but exclusively via email at international_in@uphf.fr and pri@uphf.fr for any other matters.

 

We will keep you informed of any updates as and when the condition changes.

 

All incoming students can find all the information given by our institution in the following links and will receive update by email:

Given current conditions, we would like to reassure you flexibility with our nomination and application deadlines for next academic year. We would ask you to provide the same flexibility with your deadlines.

 

We deeply regret the inconvenience this situation may cause and we thank you for your understanding. 

Do not hesitate to get in touch with us should you have any questions regarding the situation of your students.

We hope that these exceptional measures will be over as soon as possible and we will be able to return to normal life.  

 

Kind regards,
