Higher education in Finland
► Universities
 Undergraduate studies => Batchelor of Science
(3 years)
 Postgraduate studies => Masters of Science (23 years)
 Licentiate degree (4 years)
 Doctorate studies => PhD or DSci (over 4
years)
Traditional Scientific Universities: of Technology, Philosophy, Economics, etc
Lower level schools, who are not scientific universities, call themselves universities
(in Finnish ammattikorkeakoulu = vocational higher institute)
► 20
universities
in 10 cities

NIRCE Partners
 Umeå University Cooperates through the Center for Medical Technology and
Physics and through the Department of Archeology.
 The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, SLU, in Umeå has many
NIR projects in forestry, plant physiology, feed and biofuel.
 At the University of Vaasa there is a group working on genetic algorithms
applied to industrial problems and automation.
 The Swedish Polytechnic , Finland has a very long tradition of collaboration
with local industries, where NIR equipment can be used as a powerful online
measurement method.
 NIR Nord. NIRCE co-operates with NIR Nord in the organisation of symposia
and workshops with international speakers.
