Master's Degree Program in Finnish and its Languages

Choice of students in the Master's program in Finnish and its Languages

The Master's Degree Program in Finnish and its Languages is intended for non-native speakers of Finnish and other Finno-Ugric languages who have completed their bachelor's degrees abroad or in Finland.

Admission to the Master's program is a BA-level degree, which combines basic and intermediate studies in Finno-Ugric or Finnish language and culture, either as a degree or as a separate course. In exceptional cases, students who have completed a BA degree and who have not completed the above studies in Finno-Ugric or Finnish language and culture may also be admitted to the program through a proficiency test.

The annual admission is 6-10. Previous studies and success are used as selection criteria.

Applications will be ranked:

1. Study content,
2. Number of studies and
3. On the basis of academic success, linguistic and Finnish-language studies have priority.

The electronic application is made at opintopolku.fi. There you will also find more detailed selection criteria. The next application period is in January 2022.
