ANU to pause coursework teaching for one week

The global COVID19 situation continues to escalate. The Australian National University is taking every precaution to respond to this challenge in a way that ensures the wellbeing and safety of our community, as well as ensure core operations. We are planning for the long-term. Today ANU Vice-Chancellor Professor Brian Schmidt announced ANU will pause coursework teaching for one week from Monday 23 March. Coursework teaching will recommence on Monday 30 March. This pause will allow the University to focus on four priorities: F inalising moving our courses to remote learning so we can finish semester one and continue teaching for the rest of the year; Focusing on safely bringing home staff and students who are currently overseas; Setting up work from home arrangements for when they are needed, and Finalising local level business continuity plans. The University remains open, including libraries, childcare centres, retail outlets and residential halls.
