Study exchange with University of Eastern Finland

The University of Eastern Finland is one of the most multidisciplinary universities in Finland. The University was established in 2010 and comprises four faculties: the Philosophical Faculty, the Faculty of Science and Forestry, the Faculty of Health Sciences, and the Faculty of Social Sciences and Business Studies. 

Students attending the university number around 13,000, with international students given the opportunity of understanding Finnish culture more deeply via UEF's 'Finnish Friend Program', which assigns a Finnish student to an international one by way of assisting with their adaptations to everyday Finnish life.

The University’s commitment to promoting sustainable development recently saw it collaborating with World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to tackle the wasting of natural resources caused by office work, earning it a ‘Green Office’ label in the process.
