International Office

The international office coordinates exchange studies at Novia University of Applied Sciences. Most degree programmes at Novia UAS are taught in Swedish but non-Swedish students can easily participate in the studies. Many courses are offered in English. The growing importance of project-based learning allows the use of English as the working language. Courses with a more practical orientation involving field work, workshops or laboratories are always open to non-Swedish speakers.

Exchange students can work on individual projects guided by a teacher, combine studies and a work placement or choose courses from other Finnish universities cooperating with Novia. Students from Novia's partner universities abroad can apply for exchange studies at Novia once they have been nominated for an exchange by their home university.
