Course units and study modules
At the Open University, you can complete course units and study modules included in the degree studies organised by Tampere University. Most of Open University studies offered (ca. 1000) are basic-level studies taught in Finnish, but we also offer almost 200 English-taught course units or study modules. In order to complete the courses, you must already have a good command of Finnish and/or English, depending on the course.
A single course may have several different implementations during the academic year, with different completion methods and timings. It is good to take into account that independent and online studies might also require to attend an exam in the Tampere University campus. Please check the details on each course’s infowebpage.
