At present, the epidemic situation in foreign countries is in the stage of outbreak. Although it has been effectively controlled in China, the pressure of imported cases is still not small. Although many places have made relevant arrangements on the opening time of colleges and universities, the process of opening is not so smooth.
Before, except for Hubei, many places in the country have announced their opening time, but with the change of the epidemic situation, the pressure of imported cases has increased, and many places have pressed the pause button for the opening. Yunnan Province, which announced the opening of the school earlier, has pressed the "pause" button for the first time. Recently, Shandong Province, Luzhou City, Sichuan Province and Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province have successively issued notices to postpone or adjust the opening time.
Before that, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing Agricultural University, Huazhong University of science and technology and other universities issued the notice of "no return to school". The offline opening process of the University was slow. However, some Chinese foreign cooperatively run universities have completely abandoned the opening of this semester and moved all courses to the Internet. Kunshan Duke University has decided to extend the online teaching of master's programs and undergraduate programs to the end of the spring semester. This decision means that all of its courses will be conducted online, and students do not need to return to school this semester.
On novel coronavirus pneumonia, Beijing city education and Industry Commission spokesman Li Yi said in a news conference on April 14th in Beijing, that the University and kindergartens would not return to school. Colleges and universities in Beijing are far from opening.
Several universities issued the notice of "no school"
In Colleges and universities, at present, the first batch of students in Colleges and universities in Xinjiang, Shanxi, Qinghai and other provinces have successfully returned to school. However, the opening of colleges and universities across the country is not smooth. On April 14, Nanjing University of information engineering issued an urgent notice online, looking for students flying from Harbin to Nanjing (flight number: h01711). It is reported that the flight has a fever, the school for the sake of prudence carried out with the screening of personnel. This caused a heated discussion among students about whether to start school now.
In addition, many colleges and universities in Jiangsu Province and Hubei Province, including Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing Agricultural University and Huazhong University of science and technology, which have not announced the opening time since April 13, have recently issued the notice of "no return to school".
Recently, the two Sino foreign cooperative universities, Xijiao Liverpool University, Beijing Normal University Hong Kong Baptist University Joint International College, as well as Southwest Petroleum University and other universities have issued the notice of "no return to school".

HKBU beishigang: students of other grades outside the undergraduate class will not return to school this semester
It is reported that the Joint International College of Beijing Normal University and Hong Kong Baptist University, which is also a Chinese foreign cooperatively run university, has also issued a "no return to school" notice. According to the contents of the email provided by the readers, Beishi HKBU has decided that all students and graduate students of other grades will not return to school this semester, except for those in the graduating class. The date of returning to school will be notified separately. The following is part of the message:
Considering the very high proportion of international students and the number of foreign teachers and staff, it is reasonable for the Chinese foreign cooperation university not to return to school this semester in the current global outbreak. In addition, according to the news on the Internet, Chinese and foreign cooperatively run universities such as Wenzhou Ken University and Shanghai New York University have also issued relevant "no return to school" notices, but we have not found relevant official notices for the time being.
Of course, not all Chinese foreign cooperatively run colleges and universities are ready to start school offline this semester. Ningbo Nottingham University is actively preparing for the opening drill to prepare for the opening. On the morning of April 8, Ningbo Nottingham University carried out the whole process of back to school drill, simulating various emergencies. The school epidemic prevention and control working group followed up the drill and said that it would carefully sort out the situation in each link and continue to improve the work plan for students returning to school.
Southwest Petroleum University: undergraduates are not open for the time being, and online teaching will continue in 9-12 weeks
On April 16, the official website of Southwest Petroleum University released the notice on the implementation of online teaching for undergraduate students in the spring semester of 2020 for 9-12 weeks. Novel coronavirus pneumonia is the key to novel coronavirus pneumonia. The notice indicates that, according to the current situation of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the school has decided to implement online teaching according to the requirements of the 9-12 week of the school calendar. Meanwhile, teachers and students should be properly prepared for the online teaching preparation for the 13 week and later courses. Whether the online teaching will continue to be implemented after thirteenth weeks or later will be notified according to the new crown pneumonia epidemic prevention and control situation.
For the online course assessment form, the notice points out that the assessment scheme can be adjusted according to the actual situation of the course, such as papers, research reports, large assignments, online oral examination and other methods for assessment.
In general, the spring semester lasts about 18 weeks, which is almost equal to 70% of the teaching time of this semester in Southwest Petroleum University. Since the possibility of continuing online teaching in 13 weeks is not ruled out, students of Southwest Petroleum University are likely to keep online teaching throughout the semester, and it is unlikely to return to school this semester.
Nanjing Agricultural University: several types of graduates may not return to school, and their undergraduate thesis may not be defended
Nanjing Agricultural University announced its opening on April 5, saying it will start school in batches and by stages from April 17. It is reported that due to the great differences in the specific conditions of all kinds of students, the school respects the wishes of students and can choose to return to school voluntarily or not. Novel coronavirus novel coronavirus pneumonia prevention and control program was introduced in April 13th, and the new coronavirus pneumonia prevention and control period was temporarily delayed and the academic guidance program was postponed. A detailed plan has been made for the two kinds of students' teaching activities, such as course arrangement, examination, practice and thesis.
The "back to school program" explains several kinds of situations in which the graduation grade can not return to school, and the arrangement that the graduation thesis does not adopt the way of reply, etc. The original text is as follows:
For graduating students, they can flexibly master the requirements of graduation thesis (Design) and the form of defense. The related work of graduation thesis (Design) should be conducted online under the guidance of tutors as much as possible. If there is no reason why students have to go back to school and put forward a request for postponement, they can postpone going back to school.
For graduating students:
① Graduates of Humanities and Social Sciences;
② Graduates of natural science who have completed the experimental part of graduation thesis (Design);
③ Students who have not completed the experimental part of the graduation thesis (Design) or have not started the experiment in the natural science class shall be adjusted to other content and form (such as the type of thesis that can be completed without the experiment) with the consent of the tutor. If the student requests to postpone returning to school, he can postpone returning to school.
The work arrangement of undergraduate thesis (Design) defense is not adopted in this year's undergraduate thesis (Design). Instead, the college sets up a graduation thesis (Design) assessment team to evaluate the thesis and PPT submitted by the students After the assessment, the assessment results are given, and the paper (Design) results are calculated comprehensively according to the assessment results of tutors, teachers and assessment groups.
Huazhong University of science and technology: Online graduates leave at the end of May, other grades do not return to school this semester
Recently, the Academic Affairs Office of Huazhong University of science and Technology issued a notice on the relevant work of 2020 undergraduate graduates. According to the notice, graduates should complete the defense of graduation project (Thesis) before May 23; each college (Department) should give full play to the characteristics of the discipline and strengthen the online guidance of graduation project (Thesis); other methods can be used to replace the paper related to experimental practice and other links. All the supplementary (delayed) examination and re examination of graduates must be completed before May 20. The university is scheduled to hold a bachelor degree evaluation group meeting before May 26 to review and approve the list of graduates and degree awarding.
It seems that Huake will focus on all kinds of affairs related to undergraduate graduation at the end of May, but there is no relevant arrangement for graduates to return to school.
In fact, the news about Huake's return to school is not blank. Recently, a document about the policy of returning Huake graduates to school has aroused heated discussion on the Internet. According to the online documents, Huazhong University of science and technology requires graduates to complete the procedures of leaving school from May 26 to 31. Wuhan graduates "return to school on the same day and leave school on the same day" do not stay in the dormitory.

In addition, some students in the post bar of Huazhong University of science and technology provided a screenshot of the notice of the freshmen group of Huake University of computer science. The screenshot shows that "it is clear that students of grade 17 will not return to the school this semester".
However, no such information has been released by Huake in any official channel, so the authenticity of the information remains to be determined. The only certainty is that the relevant work of Huake's graduates will be completed by the end of May.
Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics
Previously, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics issued a notice of the opening of the University, saying that students began to study in batches since April 23. On April 14, the official wechat of China Southern Airlines released a guide for students to go back to school, demonstrating how to apply for going back to school and the protection measures on the way back to school in the form of video.
According to the Internet, the statistics of the application of students returning to school by China Southern Airlines show that the proportion of postgraduates, especially those in the graduating grade, is relatively high.
Therefore, in the notice of returning to school, the University arranges the master students, doctoral students and the fourth year of undergraduate to return to school first, while the time of returning to school for the other year of undergraduate is still to be determined.
According to the news from the above several schools, the university basically tends to reply online for undergraduates and complete papers at home; the master and doctoral students who need to complete experiments and other offline operations are the mainstream of returning to school; while other grades basically tend to maintain online teaching. In short, people who have to be in school to complete research tasks such as experiments can basically not return to school.
Except for the opening time
How to arrange summer vacation time
It's also a big concern
On April 18, the official wechat of the Ministry of science and engineering of Jiangnan University announced the specific situation of the school calendar adjustment in the second semester of 2019-2020 academic year. It is clear that the summer vacation time is July 27-September 6, 2020. Due to the impact of the epidemic, the starting time of online teaching for undergraduate students in the second semester of 2019-2020 academic year is February 24, 2020, which is one week later than the original school calendar. Meanwhile, it is considered that some practical teaching links are not carried out online Teaching, in order to meet the needs of curriculum teaching, adjust the original school calendar. See the attachment for the adjusted school calendar of this semester. The questions are as follows:
1. Add week 0: February 17-23, 2020, for online teaching preparation week;
