The Governing Council of the Polytechnic University of Cartagena has approved the capacities allowed in all UPCT classrooms to guarantee the health safety of the students, foreseeing different scenarios depending on the evolution of the Covid-19 pandemic.The Polytechnic has almost a hundred teaching classrooms with the capacity to house 7,093 students.
So that each student should not sit less than one and a half meters from any other classmate, the total capacity of the UPCT classrooms will be reduced to 2,449 seats, 65% less.
And if an even greater distance of two meters is chosen between each student, the number of working chairs would be 1,517, 79% less.The Polytechnic of Cartagena has various plans to adapt next year to the uncertain evolution of the global Covid-19 pandemic.
The scenarios that the UPCT is considering include from the conventional presence of the students to the completely online teaching that has been given in the semester that now ends, but the current forecast is to resume classes after the summer with a blended model with the assistance of the students at 50% of the subjects, as an average reference value.The seven centers of the UPCT finalize the schedules and shifts of the subjects for the next semester following a semi-attendance scheme that minimizes the stay time of the students on the Polytechnic campus and prioritizing the presentiality in the experimental subjects and in which Problem solving sessions are required, as well as the assistance of first year students.Today was the last Governing Council led by Rector Alejandro Díaz, who will be replaced by Rector-elect Beatriz Miguel, whose inauguration will take place on the 28th.
Members of the Governing Council have been able to participate both in person and telematically, as has been customary in recent months.
