Living in Finland
Turku UAS campuses are located in the city of Turku and Salo in Southwest Finland.
Everyday life in Southwest Finland is rush-free. Turku, the city of 200 000 people, is still big enough to have adequate urban services for international experts from different professional backgrounds.
As a workplace Turku University of Applied Sciences has an inspiring atmosphere that creates continuous development. The multidisciplinary community supports innovative thinking, and here you can truly have an impact on the future of students and working life. I especially appreciate the flexibility of the workplace and good working conditions.
