BSc in Materials Science

The program offers structured training in material properties, testing methods, and engineering applications. Students gain practical exposure through laboratory work that focuses on metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites. Collaboration with research groups introduces students to current material development work used in energy, electronics, and industrial design.

Graduates build skills that support entry into engineering roles, research positions, and further study at master’s level. The course connects theory with practical tasks, giving students experience in solving material-related problems used in manufacturing and product design.

Applicants need a completed secondary school qualification equivalent to Finnish upper secondary education. Strong performance in mathematics and science subjects supports admission chances. Some intake rounds may include entrance tests or online assessments.

Scholarships are available for non-EU/EEA students, often covering part of tuition fees based on academic performance. Application is submitted online through the national joint application system or university portal during the application period. Required documents include academic transcripts, proof of English skills, and identification documents.
