The "Aurel Vlaicu" University in Arad will transition to online classes until the winter break due to budget constraints affecting heating and electricity costs. Over 7,000 students will participate in remote learning, which has sparked dissatisfaction among many who value in-person experiences. Some students express concerns about losing practical learning opportunities and social interactions. The university's leadership states that this temporary measure aims to save on utility expenses while adhering to the budget provided by the Ministry of Education. Exceptions will be made for essential in-person practical courses, with plans to return to normal physical classes next year.
