More informationRequirements
An applicant who already has an appropriate Bachelor's/Master's degree may apply for a Master's degree program. The appropriate degrees are defined in the Admission Guide. If you know Finnish, please go to the Finnish webpage, even if planning to apply to a Master's degree program taught in English. This site is only for applicants who do not know Finnish.
The Master of Science (Economics and Business Administration) degree is a higher academic degree (second-cycle degree) in Finland and equals to 120 ECTS credits which corresponds to two years of full-time studying. The student may also be assigned supplementary studies (max 60 ECTS credits). Studying towards the Master's degree does not suit students working full time. Depending on the course, the lectures may be during the daytime or also in the evening.
