1  Measures to prevent infections on campus and daily life

1) Careful hand washing, temperature check and health management

Be sure to check your temperature every morning regardless of whether or not you are attending class, and make sure you are feeling well for the day.

If you have a fever, do not come to school, but report to the University. For more information, please refer to “【To Students】The action guidelines and report form for COVID-19“on the University’s website.

In order to maintain good health, it is important to take enough sleep and nutrition to prevent your immune system from being weakened. Also, always wash your hands with soap and water, and disinfect your hands with alcohol, not only before entering school or during breaks, but also in your daily life.

Alcohol disinfectant is available at each entrance of the building on campus.

2) Scanning your ID with card readers at the time of entry and exit

When entering and leaving the campus, please make sure to scan your student ID card on the card readers at the guard stations on Ueno Campus or at the designated location on other campuses.

We ask for your cooperation so that we can respond quickly to prevent the spread of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) on campus and  and protect your safety.

At Ueno Campus, please be sure to do so each time you travel between campuses and between the buildings of the administration office, the Faculty of Music and the Faculty of Fine Arts.

3) Use of masks when talking or speaking in close proximity to others

Be sure to bring your own mask and wear it at all times, except in cases when it is not possible to wear it due to the course content.

In particular, students should thoroughly wear masks in classes where discussions are held in close range to avoid droplets.

4) Complete ventilation

In the lecture rooms, studios, lesson rooms, etc., be sure to turn on the ventilation fans to avoid airtight spaces and provide frequent ventilation even during classes.

For example, please open two windows at the same time, or open both the window and the door to the corridor at least once every 30 minutes during classes to ensure thorough ventilation.

If you use air conditioners, please ensure that the air is properly ventilated.

Each lecture room, studio, lesson room, and laboratory has been measured for proper ventilation, and the number of students who can be accommodated has been notified to each faculty member.

5) After classes

After attending in-person or online classes on campus, students should return home as soon as possible to prevent the spread of infection.
