Today, the international perspective is a part of all careers. Employers value competence gained abroad. Studies and work placement completed abroad will boost your employment prospects and your career.
HAMK students have many alternatives to increase their international competence while studying with us. HAMK graduates are desired experts in the labour market; they are global problem-solvers with a creative and progressive approach.
Studies or work placement completed abroad are included as part of your studies at HAMK. When the exchange period abroad is well planned and implemented, it will not lengthen the normal duration of your studies.
