Dear International students,

Currently, Beijing has launched the First-level Response Mechanism for public health emergencies. The prevention and control of pneumonia caused by the new coronavirus has become the top priority. Moreover, the prevention and control of this epidemic is not only a matter of everyone’s health, but also responsibility and obligation of each person.

According to the unified arrangement of the PRC’s Ministry of Education and Municipal Government of Beijing, the university has decided to postpone the 2020 spring semester. All students are requested to not return to campus in advance. The specific resumption date and further related arrangements will be notified in another notice.

We would also like to remind everyone to raise awareness of prevention, maintain personal hygiene, always wear masks properly, avoid crowded places, and actively cooperate in any effort to prevent and control this epidemic. Regarding any queries or further information, please contact your program officer or send an e-mail to study@pku.edu.cn immediately.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation, we sincerely hope you everything goes well.
