Korkeakoulussa

Korkeakoulussa is a Finnish term that translates to "in higher education" or "at a university/university of applied sciences." It refers to the academic environment and the activities associated with pursuing tertiary education in Finland. This includes studying at universities and universities of applied sciences, which are the two main types of higher education institutions in the country.

In a korkeakoulussa setting, students engage in degree programs leading to Bachelor's, Master's, or Doctoral degrees. The focus is on academic learning, research, and professional development. The learning environment typically involves lectures, seminars, independent study, and practical training or internships, depending on the field of study.

Students are expected to manage their time effectively, engage in critical thinking, and contribute to the academic community. The Finnish higher education system is known for its high quality, accessibility, and emphasis on research and innovation. Entrance to korkeakoulussa is generally competitive, based on academic performance and entrance examinations.
