Working together to stay safe
Here at AURAK the safety of our students, faculty and staff is our utmost priority. See below for details of what is required to come on to campus.
There are some things we all need to do to ensure that we keep our AURAK community safe.
Visit the section below “we are all responsible” to find out about the measures we have put in place and what is required of you.
Also, in the “keeping each other safe” section there is information on how to best care for yourself and others while you are on Campus.
Ongoing support is available from our Office of Student Affairs.
This information may be subject to change, so continue to visit this site to get the latest guidance.
We are All Responsible
Self-isolation
If anyone has COVID-19 symptoms, it is important to stay at home (or go home immediately), self-isolate, and book a coronavirus PCR test. If you are not able to go home we will provide an isolation room.
If you test positive for coronavirus you must:
- Email at covid@aurak.ac.ae and let us know
- Only return to campus when you feel well and have had two negative test results
Face coverings
Face coverings are not mandatory, but please continue to wear masks in enclosed spaces for the continued safety of yourself and others.
You should bring two masks daily, one to be used in the morning and the other after lunch. Masks should also be disposed of in the designated bins for medical waste. In the case of using fabric masks, precautions must be taken to ensure that the used ones are properly stored in your bag and cleaned daily.
Cleaning and hygiene
Enhanced cleaning regimes will remain in place. We all have a responsibility to continue to maintain high personal levels of hygiene, especially by regularly washing our hands. Hand sanitizer is provided throughout campus for everyone to use.
Vaccinate
Vaccination is free for all UAE citizens and residents, and everyone who can be vaccinated should do so to protect themselves and others.
