Working experience as a part of the degree
You can include a maximum of 5 cr of practical training in your master’s degree (exluding students of the HCI major, who can include SCI practical training credits to their studies).
The training is done via the course ELEC-E7990 Professional training 2 – 5 cr. You should register for this course in Sisu. Practical training is included in the elective studies module in the degree.
We recommend that you participate in the course ELEC-E7990 Professional training after the first year of your master’s studies. However, the course is available at all times during the academic year.
You are responsible to find the practical training placement by yourself, and it should be approved by the course teachers beforehand as part of the preliminary assignment of the course.
On the MyCourses pages of the course, you can find more specific information about the practical training course.
You can get 1–10 credits from work experience related to your field of study. The credits are included in elective studies.
More information on practical training and instructions on submitting the credit application can be found in the MyCourses workspace of SCI.trai - Training. Go to MyCourses and search for the instance of SCI.trai - Training of the current academic year.

Studies in other Finnish Universities
If a student is registered as a degree student at a Finnish university, according to the national flexible study rights agreement (JOO), they are entitled to apply for a fixed term study right for single courses or minors at any other Finnish university. JOO studies should be integrated in the student’s degree at their home university. Bachelor's, master's and doctoral students can apply for the JOO flexible study right. The university can grant a right to study only for studies that are offered to JOO students, and only when the student’s home university has first endorsed the application.
