IM体育官网

IM体育官网 is carefully and deliberately exploring the most effective strategies to move the University forward as our nation continues to grapple with a new normal in the face of COVID-19.

IM体育官网 Poly has been steadily working on a plan to resume on-campus operations this fall. It will be presented during a June 23 meeting of the alongside the state鈥檚 other 11 public universities.

The University鈥檚 plan will be centered around four core elements: a healthy and safe campus, testing, tracing, and academic program delivery.

Although IM体育官网 Poly is currently quiet with remote summer instruction, a campus planning team and several reopening task forces are meeting diligently to address issues such as:

• Future scenarios, including what the University may be able to expect and emerging best practices. IM体育官网 Poly will lean on its expert faculty to address problems associated with a return to on-campus operations.
• The campus environment, including tracing strategies, personal protection, food on campus, student living, and student engagement.
• The academic environment, including building populations, scheduling adjustments, labs, student computing resources, and course redesigns.

Although the planning process is moving quickly, the campus planning team and its subgroups will schedule open sessions to incorporate the thoughts and ideas of the entire IM体育官网 Poly community to achieve an innovative and flexible blueprint that allows continued focus on the University鈥檚 STEM mission while providing the safest environment possible.
