The health and safety of students, faculty, and staff is the primary concern of AAU.  This is why AAU has put measures in place in accordance with government regulations that will help keep  students, faculty, and staff safe. They include the following: 

  • Every person entering the AAU campus is expected to use hand sanitizer from one of the hand sanitizer stations placed on campus.  
  • According to Czech Republic government rules, masks are no longer required except public transportation and health care facilities effective March 14, 2022. As a result, masks are not required on AAU campus starting March 14, 2022.
