    Information regarding the PHDL COVID-19-action plan: The health and well-being of our students are our highest priority, and we are continuing to keep a close eye on the development of COVID-19 in Austria and abroad. As the situation seems currently well under control, the PHDL intends to offer in-person tuition for students from the EU on campus in 2020/21. For 2021/22 we will hopefully be able to re-open mobilities for our partners from Asia.
