Congratulations for getting to start your studies at Laurea – the most awarded university of applied sciences in Finland. After completing your higher education degree at our institution you will have all that you need to go far in your future career.
Studies at Laurea follow the Learning by Developing model. In practise this means that our students are actively involved in research and development and other projects with real working life partners throughout their studies. Thus Laurea graduates already posses a certain readiness to function in and develop working life. It is a useful ace to have up one’s sleeve when looking for
the job that could be the one. The fact that the employment rates of Laurea graduates have been among the best ones in Finland already for years, is a living proof of this.
Laurea’s personnel are here for you to guarantee that your studies will go smoothly, but in order to succeed you also need to contribute yourself. You need to be spontaneous, curious and even hardworking!
Your own tutor teacher will give you student counselling throughout your studies and the Student Affairs Office will help you in all matters related to studying.
With the help of your personal electronic study plan (HOPS) you can plan your own study path and also follow the progress of your studies.
It is worthwhile to familiarize yourself well with the Laurea Facts - it includes all the information you need in your studies.
We wish you a fruitful study time.
