Strong support from companies for a professional doctorate

A working group of 13 universities of applied sciences proposes the introduction of a professional doctorate in Finland, in line with established European practice. A recent survey of business leaders shows that there is clear demand for this new type of degree. Half of the company representatives expressed a very or fairly positive attitude towards professional doctorates. Almost as many consider it possible that their company could offer a position for a professional doctoral candidate in the future.

The proposal stems from concerns about Finland's declining competitiveness, weakening innovation capacity, and falling behind in European development.
