All planned international trips which are a part of studies are cancelled until further notice. All international business trips of HAMK staff members are cancelled until further notice. All staff and students arriving from other countries will automatically self-isolate to work or study from home for 14 days. Visitors from abroad and incoming students (studies and work placement) cannot come to HAMK until further notice.

HAMK has aborted all international study and trainee mobility placements concerning HAMK students who are abroad. All HAMK students currently studying or training abroad have been summoned home. If the student decides to stay in the exchange country, they need to inform HAMK of this in writing.

HAMK is not closed from operation. We will keep working and do our best so that studies will be continued as smoothly as possible despite the exceptional situation.
