Study programmes database

Welcome to the International Study Programmes Database maintained by CIMO. This database provides information about almost 550 study programmes in English offered by Finnish higher education institutions.

Some of the programmes are short courses which can usually be taken only as part of an exchange programme (Non-degree Programmes) - other, broader-based programmes take several years to complete and lead to an official Finnish higher education degree (Degree Programmes). The credits shown are ECTS credits.

NB: Polytechnic = University of Applied Science (UAS). For an explanation on the difference between 'university' and 'polytechnic (UAS)', please see our FAQ section.

If you wish to get more information on the contents of the individual programmes, please ask the institution in question for assistance.

Doctoral level studies and research

In Finnish universities, Doctoral level studies can be available either as ready-made Doctoral programmes or as tailor-made Doctoral level study and research opportunities. Therefore, not all the Doctoral level study and research options are covered here - our database only lists those ready-made programmes that are available in English. If you wish to work for a doctoral thesis in Finland, and can not find a suitable programme in this database, you can also contact the institution concerned or relevant department directly and inquire about possible Doctoral level study opportunities. The university can then assist you in questions regarding when and how to submit an application.
