Karelia has three Bachelor’s Degree Programmes that are instructed fully in English: International Business, Industrial Management, and Information and Communication Technology (new, starts in Autumn 2023). Most of the courses in these programs are available for exchange students.
In addition, Karelia offers two 60 ECTS “specializations” suitable for 3rd or 4th-year Bachelor-level students who have relevant background studies (e.g. engineering, business, management, forestry, environmental sciences). It is also possible to complete only the Autumn semester studies of the specializations (30 ECTS). The studies are organized jointly by Karelia and other partners in INVEST European University Alliance:
Most of the other Bachelor’s Degree Programmes at Karelia also offer courses and sometimes projects or practical training possibilities for exchange students. Joint and transdisciplinary courses are suitable for all exchange students.
- Please note that possibilities for supervised projects and practical training are limited and not guaranteed to all interested applicants.
- Most degree programs can accept only exchange students who are enrolled in a similar major at their own university.
The departmental international coordinators can be contacted with questions related to studies, projects and practical training.
