Choose not the ordinary, but extraordinary. Study abroad.
If you dare to dream big, want to challenge yourself and learn more about yourself, have a passion for getting to know new cultures, develop your professional growth, and expand your international network or live abroad – do not hesitate and go abroad.
Eeva, business economics
Eeva is one of the many Oamk students, who have used the opportunity to study abroad in one of the Oamk’s partner institutions or completed their traiheeship abroad. You have the same possibility.
Exchange means studying or participating in practical training abroad with a grant for a duration of two to twelve months. Additionally, there are shorter exchange opportunities and grants available. Some degree programs also have double degree agreements with specific partner institutions, allowing you to earn and complete two degrees by studying part of your Oamk studies abroad.
When planning your studies abroad, it is essential to ensure that they can be accredited toward your degree studies at Oamk. In addition to credits, you will enhance your international competence, including problem-solving skills, adaptability, and social abilities. You will also establish new networks and contacts that can benefit you after graduation. If you aspire to an international career, studying abroad may be a crucial step toward achieving that goal. So seize the opportunity and choose studies abroad.
The International Mobility Services and Oamk Service Team will assist you throughout your exchange period, from start to finish.
