There is close cooperation between our degree students and enterprise partners.

In our international degree programmes, students work in genuinely multicultural environments from the beginning of their studies and gain strong competence for working in international teams.

At TAMK Proakatemia, students learn together. They establish team enterprises where learning is interwoven with customer projects and product development.

Business administration and hospitality management students do varying projects for enterprises and the school’s strong and long-term competence is used for coaching people who study while working.
