Courses and Learning Agreement

A well prepared study plan is key to successful exchange. Our Courses for Exchange Students is meant to help you choose the courses that best suit your studies and interests.

Choose your courses

 

All our faculties offer a variety of courses in English. The recommended workload for exchange students is 30 credits per term (full time study load), 60 credits for a full year exchange. You can choose courses from different faculties or field of study, but majority of your courses should be chosen from the faculty that you are applying to. Please note, that if you choose courses from different faculties, schedule overlaps are possible. 

When choosing courses, please see the "Show description" tab in the course catalogue for more information about the courses, possible prerequisites and other restrictions.

 

Learning Agreement

Learning agreement is a mandatory part of your exchange application whether you are applying for study exchange or traineeship exchange. 

FOR ERASMUS+ STUDENTS
We are accepting Online Learning Agreements (OLA) from incoming Erasmus+ students. Please find the contact information for responsible persons for signing OLAs online at https://www.oulu.fi/en/students/student-exchange/student-exchange-servi…

In case your home university has not implemented the Online Learning Agreement yet, we also accept the traditional paper/pdf learning agreements. Please consult your home university on which format you should use.

If you are applying though another exchange programme (e.g. bilateral agreement), please use our general learning agreement template.
