Industrial impact

The work that is done in many of our fields of study has its roots in the 19th century. From its beginning, the study of technology has been aimed at developing the Finnish economy.

For the School of Engineering, close collaboration with stakeholders is a strength, a key element in research and education, and a long-standing tradition.
