Arcada's campus
On 20 November, we open the doors to our lab and simulation centres to celebrate 20 years on campus. What happens in the Arcada studio when the recording light is on? Why do we need a humanoid robot to teach children how to floss? How do paramedics learn to save lives in an ambulance simulator?
Looking to advance your nursing career in Finland? Arcada’s Nursing TopUp degree is for nurses with qualifications from abroad, work experience, and strong Finnish and English skills. Application is open from 23–30 September 2024. We had a chat with TopUp Nursing student Richard Sudara about why he applied to the programme, and why he thinks you should too.
With his international background and extensive experience in the higher education sector, Professor of Information Technology Mark Dougherty brings new strengths to the management of Arcada. From August, he will take over as Dean for the Graduate School and Research.
The board of administration has appointed new chairpersons and members for the governing bodies of Arcada University of Applied Sciences. There will be clear continuity in the organisation as all chairpersons have previously held a position of trust at the UAS. At the same time, both the board of administration and the UAS's board are strengthened with new expertise.
On Wednesday 13 March, the application to Arcada's Swedish-language degree programmes at both bachelor's and master's level begins. The application period lasts for two weeks until 27 March at 3 p.m. (Finnish time).
