VAMK´s Bachelor Degree programs for international students are conducted full-time

What are full-time studies?

In full-time studies, teaching and guidance are primarily conducted on campus during weekdays and daytime hours. The curriculum also includes independent study, possibly some online courses with more flexible scheduling, as well as internships and thesis work as outlined in the curriculum.

Vaasa city

Why come to study in Vaasa?

Our university is located in the heart of Vaasa, which has more energy technology related companies than any other city in the Nordic countries. In our region, more than 160 companies work in the field of energy technology, and about 25 % of the employees of the Finnish energy sector work here. The overall turnover of these companies is about 5 billion euros annually, and therefore it is well justified to say that Vaasa keeps the wheels of Finland’s economy rolling!

It’s easy to be happy in Vaasa

A smooth-running daily life, well-being and happiness arise from good employment, a high level of education, well-functioning services, rich cultural offerings, a wide variety of recreational opportunities. Short distances make Vaasa an easy city to live in; everything essential is within a walking or cycling distance and traffic jams are rare.

The Sea

Is part of our everyday life and gives us strength. Our close proximity to Finland’s only UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site, the Kvarken Archipelago, offers us a perspective stretching far beyond the country’s borders.
