Study options

In this section you can find out what kind of study options Finland can provide.

For the international student, Finland offers many opportunities. You can come to Finland as an exchange student, a trainee or to study for a whole academic degree.

Our summer universities arrange several courses offering you an excellent chance to experience Finnish higher education and its fields of expertise (NB: information on Summer Universities to be added on this site in the near future!)

Where to find information on the different study programme options?

CIMO maintains a database of information and links to all non-degree and degree programmes in English. Also, you can turn to the individual institutions' own websites for info on study opportunities, if you already know where in Finland you'd like to study.
