International Turku UAS

Turku University of Applied Sciences is an international and multicultural study and work community where internationality is integrated into all our activities – education, research, development and innovation activities as well as cooperation with working life.

We collaborate with our partners regionally, nationally and internationally. The goal of our international activities is to support the strategy of Turku University of Applied Sciences as an impactful higher education institution across the world of work. Through internationalisation, we also aim to increase the quality and effectiveness of our operations.

International activities include, for example, the following areas:

The focus areas of our international activities are the coastal states of the Baltic Sea region and the rest of Europe, but Turku University of Applied Sciences also has field-specific partners in Asia and North and South America. In addition, we are involved in RDI cooperation projects around the world. We take ethical aspects and international law into account in all our partnerships.
