What is the BEng degree all about?

The need for ICT professionals is growing continuously. As an ICT engineer, you are able to design and realize various software solutions and applications. You are also capable of working as an active member of your working society and developing your own profession. The degree programme in Information Technology emphasises web development. The studies consist of software development, web and mobile application technologies and IoT technologies.

Studies are organised mainly as daytime teaching at our campus. The studies are meant for both Finnish and international students who are interested in pursuing a career in an international work environment in Finland or abroad. Studies are conducted entirely in English and include lectures, workshops, project and group assignments as well as individual presentations. Studies have a close connection to work-life and local companies. This ensures that students can put the theory they have learned at lectures into practice.
