Student and Staff Mobility

Student and staff mobility is promoted by Seinäjoki University of Applied Sciences.

Seinäjoki University of Applied Sciences has about 180 partner institutions in Europe and about 45 in other continents (Asia, America, Africa, Australia ); all together in 44 different countries. 20 % of the students of Seinäjoki UAS go abroad during their studies and an average exchange study or practical training period abroad lasts for 5 months. 50 % of these outgoing students go abroad within European Union programmes and 20 % go outside Europe.

Annually around 200 teachers from Seinäjoki University of Applied Sciences travel abroad to teach at the partner universities and around 100 teachers from the partner institutions come to Seinäjoki UAS. Academic exchange works on the basis of reciprocity.

Seinäjoki UAS organizes orientation days for incoming and outgoing students annually as well as social programme for its international students throughout the year.
