Exceptional start of the academic year 2020/2021

Due to the worldwide outbreak of the Coronavirus, since March 2020 personal contacts have been heavily restricted in Finland as well as in Germany. Consequently, the Metropolia University of Applied Sciences as well as the HTW Berlin have closed their campuses and shifted their way of teaching to online mode.

Our ConREM student’s safety and well-being have always been our number one priority. Therefore, the ConREM Team has collectively decided to exceptionally start the upcoming ConREM academic year 2020/2021 (winter semester) with online distance teaching from the Metropolia UAS, as well as from the HTW Berlin.

About the exceptional start of the academic year 2020/2021, freshly accepted ConREM students should note their announcing letter from the Metropolia UAS. Meantime 2. semester ConREM students should remark their informative checklist from the HTW Berlin.

For more information about the corona regulations, please see the official Metropolia UAS and the HTW Berlin websites. Regarding information on the nowadays student life situation in Berlin, please also visit the website of the Berlin student service.
