Open University provides courses from University of Helsinki's many different fields.
You can study only one course as well as a larger study module.
Courses in Swedish and English are available, even though most courses are offered in Finnish.
There are no age restrictions. Our youngest student has been only 11 years old and the oldest over 75!
Completed courses will be entered into the University of Helsinki’s student records. They can later be incorporated into a university degree.
Studies completed at the Open University can be used as a basis for applying to degree programmes at most University of Helsinki faculties. More information: Open University route
