Thank you for this . Which of this would you recommend one to get a bachelors degree in nursing. A university or a university of Applied science?

[@studyinfinland]

Hi, in Finland bachelor's in Nursing are mainly only offered by the Universities of Applied Science (UAS) - at least when it comes to stuying in English (some unis however may offer for example Nursing Science Master's). But check the available programmes in the www.studyinfo.fi database :) Generally speaking, university degrees are more theoretically oriented than UAS degrees, which are more geared towards working life. So that may in some cases be helpful to know if you're wondering whather to study at university or UAS - it depends a bit on your own preference really.

Hi. thank you for really useful videos that you share with us🌹I really enjoy them. I'm a PhD student and I have a question about agricultural education system in Fanland! how is the agricultural education system in fanland? and how is service learning in Fenland especially in agricultural education system?

[@studyinfinland]

Hi, if you're interested in higher education (especially PhD) level education in agricultural sciences in Finland, you might wish to contact the University of Helsinki - their Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry would be your best source of info in this regard: www.helsinki.fi/en/faculty-agriculture-and-forestry Also check out the University of Eastern Finland - www.uef.fi/en/faculty-of-science-and-forestry Some Universities of Applied Sciences may also have bachelor's and master's level programmes related to Natural Resources, and agriculture-related education is of course also offered on pre-university (vocational) level for example.

[@studyinfinland]

Hi, you should start by searching for a suitable degree option at www.studyinfo.fi (that's where you apply online, it also includes a national database of English-taught degree options). Many Bachelor's have their admissions open in the January 2023 joint application, but there may be exceptions, so check with the university/UAS offering the programme! Also read our stater's advice at www.studyinfinland.fi/admissions

Hi Thank you for this video. During your bachelor degree, on average, how many courses do you take per semester considering you spent 3 and half years?

[@studyinfinland]

Hi, the *amount* of courses depends a bit on the programme, but an academic year usually consists of 60 ECTS credits. UAS bachelor's degrees amount to 210-270 ECTS credits and the duration is between 3.5-4.5 years, depending on the degree programme - for more detailed advice, contact the UAS of your choice :) www.studyinfinland.fi/admissions/study-programmes

[@KayC_A]

Hi. Nice Video. Can one use the UAS bachelors degree outside of finland? Maybe like to apply for work or further studies in the Uk, US, Australia and canada. Also are the internships paid?

[@studyinfinland]

Hi there! The academic or professional recognition of a higher education degree is always decided on in the country where one applies for studies/work, so it's not for us in Finland to decide ultimately - but the Finnish higher education degrees follow the European 3+2 years (bachelor+master) framework so they're quite likely to be recognised - however as said it's always the university/employer in country X that ultimately decides what eligibility your quelifications give. As for internships (if you mean the internhips that are part of an UAS degree) - whether they are paid rather depends - the Career Services of the UAS can advise you in more detail about the internship practicalities.

i am in waiting list of university so is there any chance of addmision or not

[@studyinfinland]

Hi, this is very difficult to guess, as it depends on the other (admitted) students' decisions really. We can only say, the higher you are on the waiting list the better the chances... but it's not "sure" of course - you just need to wait and see. Good luck! 👍

[@Jujhhjkokekrkjmekemrkklr.k]

Hi .Could you tell me please after completing master degree in applied sciences university can I study in PHD degree in another university ?My university of applied science which is located in Belgium ranking is 4400 in the word .Is it so bad ?

[@studyinfinland]

Hi there, your eligibility is always decided by the Finnish university you'd like to do your PhD at, so check with the uni of your choice. See www.studyinfinland.fi/admissions/doctoral-admissions for links to the Finnish universities' Doctoral/PhD Admissions info pages

[@sujanmagar484]

Hi, good day. May I ask if there's an age limit in studying Medicine in Finland? Thank you🌼

[@studyinfinland]

Hi there - there's no age limit for higher education in Finland, but you might need to know Finnish or Swedish quite well to apply to study Medicine (as full degrees in Medicine starting from undergraduate level would only be available here in Finnish or Swedish) - see www.studyinfo.fi for a database for info on what study programmes are offered in English!

[@lotjasmine]

@@studyinfinland Hi studyinfinland, thank you so much for your reply and for giving me the link, this helps a lot! Have a wonderful day🌼

[@user-yq6bp3ms6f]

France or Finland is better for higher education?

[@studyinfinland]

This would depend on your own preferences, really. You might wish to ask our student ambassadors why they chose Finland! See www.studyinfinland.fi/chat and on Instagram instagram.com/sif.ambassadors

[@user-yq6bp3ms6f]

Is the Finnish language difficult?

[@studyinfinland]

Hi, it can be - just like learning any new language that is far removed from your own, it requires initiative, work, and also some patience. But it's possible!
