As A Responsible Institution

At Southeastern Michigan University, we stay informed about global events and trends. Our proactive approach ensures the safety, health, and preparedness of our entire community, fostering a responsive and secure educational environment.

Visa Delays

Visa delays caused by Covid-19 have impacted one-third of university applicants, posing significant challenges for international students. The coronavirus crisis has created issues with some visa application centers, and fast-tracked appointments are currently unavailable due to the pandemic. This situation is particularly frustrating for students who have already received admission approval from their institutions.

Remote Work Challenges

Remote working has its benefits but also presents considerable challenges. It requires substantial energy to work from home, especially when balancing work and study in the same environment. To manage this, establish a consistent routine, create a dedicated workspace, write a to-do list, dress appropriately, and take regular breaks.

Employment Challenges During the Pandemic

A significant hurdle we all faced was job hunting for new graduates. The job market became highly constrained due to the global economic downturn caused by the pandemic, leading to limited opportunities.

Is Holiday Travel Safe During COVID

After months of being cooped up, it's no surprise that many are eager to travel. However, amidst a global pandemic, we bear the added responsibility of ensuring the safety of our loved ones.

Enduring Environmental Benefits

Although the pandemic's origin isn't something anyone would have preferred, one positive outcome has been a noticeable decrease in greenhouse gas emissions.

Adapting to the New Normal & Job Market

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted graduate employability worldwide. Graduates had to adapt quickly, learning essential skills, knowing where to look for opportunities, and building strong networks. Despite the challenges, those who persevered and adapted have succeeded. Reflecting on this period, it's clear that hope and mutual support were crucial. As we move forward, let's continue to help each other and maintain the resilience we built during these uncertain times.
