As of the fall semester 2023, classes at Sahlgrenska Academy will start 15 minutes past the full hour, in accordance with a new dean’s decision. The reason is that teaching needs to be synchronized with the rest of the university, which is necessary since Sahlgrenska Academy may start sharing education premises with the Faculty of Science from next autumn. The decision only covers teaching in the university’s premises, and does not include clinical training in premises belonging to the region, as an example.
