For international students we offer teaching in
- English from an advanced level (minimum CEFR B2)
- Finnish and Swedish from the beginners' level
- Intercultural communication
- Speech communication
Furthermore, international students can attend the more advanced courses in the languages where the language of teaching is marked as the target language in the course description. The course descriptions of the Language Centre follow the guidelines of the Common European Framework for Languages (CEFR) to indicate proficiency levels. For other proficiency levels, please consult the head teacher / coordinator of the language.
Please note that the practices of the School of Business vary in English courses and Finnish courses for native Finnish speakers.
