Master's Programs

  • Master’s degree programs in Finland offer a comprehensive and advanced level of education, building on the foundation established by Bachelor’s programs. While Bachelor’s programs in Finland require an upper secondary school certificate or its equivalent for admission, Master’s programs necessitate a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent. University Master’s degrees typically take 2 years of full-time study, amounting to 120 ECTS credits, while Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS) Master’s degrees are generally completed in 1 to 1.5 years, requiring 60–90 ECTS credits.

  • A distinctive feature of UAS Master’s programs is the additional requirement of at least two years of work experience in the relevant field after completing a Bachelor’s degree. This is not usually a prerequisite for University Master’s programs. The focus of Master’s programs in Finnish universities is often on research and academic depth, preparing students for either advanced professional roles or further academic pursuits, such as doctoral studies.

  • The application process for Master’s programs involves applying online through the national Studyinfo.fi portal, and the specific admission requirements can vary depending on the university and the program. English proficiency is often a requirement for international students, with tests like IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE being commonly accepted.
