Our university has been providing distance education since March in line with the precautionary decisions taken by the Republic of Turkey, Council of Higher Education (YÖK) and TRNC Council of Ministers to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, which the world is facing today. Thanks to the successful measures implemented in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus to bring the pandemic under control, we are filled with hope as we prepare for the Academic Year 2020-2021. We look forward to meeting our students in our safe country, where the pandemic has completely been brought under control, while developing solutions for multiple scenarios based on alternative plans. During the next academic year that will be shaped by the recommendations of the relevant authorities, METU Northern Cyprus Campus will continue to provide high quality education, under all circumstances, by producing solutions that bring students' health and safety and quality of education to the forefront.
