Staying healthy and well

We look forward to welcoming new and returning students, faculty and staff in-person for the Fall 2022 term!

As we navigate the impacts of communicable diseases circulating in the province, SFU remains committed to maintaining a safe and healthy environment for all who teach, learn, research, work and visit our campuses.

SFU follows public health guidance and has many layers of protection in place across our three campuses.

Masks

Masks are encouraged on our campuses, particularly in spaces where people are in close proximity. Masks are not required and are a matter of personal choice.

Vaccines

Vaccination remains the best way to protect yourself and others in your community. SFU encourages you to get your COVID-19 booster dose as soon as you are eligible.

Daily Health Assessments

Conduct a daily health assessment before coming to campus. If you’re sick, stay home and follow public health guidelines including what to do if you have COVID-19.

COVID-19 Rapid Tests

Free rapid test kits are available for all faculty, staff and students at all three campuses.

Ventilation

SFU continues to audit spaces for air quality, upgrade filters and implement WorkSafeBC and ASHRAE standards.

Enhanced Cleaning Protocols

Increased frequency of cleaning in high touch locations.
