Important to inform us about ”freemover” mobilites abroad 2019

Have you studied/completed an internship abroad as a FREEMOVER in 2019? In other words, if you have organized your exchange by yourself (not via Hanken´s exchange programme) and plan to transfer the credits you completed abroad to your MSc degree from Hanken, we kindly ask you to fill out the following questionnaire (it will take only a couple of minutes) at the latest by 2 January 2020:

https://www.webropolsurveys.com/S/C240A3A4F9FF0897.par

Just like all other universities in Finland, Hanken has to submit annual statistics on students' studies and internships abroad to the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture. The Office of International Affairs and External Relations at Hanken collects the relevant data for this purpose.

As it is very important to report correct data regarding student mobility at Hanken, we also ask students enrolled in any of the Master programs to inform us about their possible freemover exchange studies/internships abroad during 2019.

If you have questions, please contact outgoing.mobility(at)hanken.fi or phone + 358 (0)40 3521 379 (Johanna Liljequist).

The new Erasmus+ programme allows several exchanges

Hanken offers all students the possibility to go on exchange once during their studies. The exchange studies should fit into your degree and not prolong your studies. According to the latest news regarding the new Erasmus+ programme (2014-2020), the Erasmus+ programme allows students to participate in the Erasmus Exchange programme several times. This means if you have already been on Erasmus exchange before your studies at Hanken you can now also apply for Erasmus exchange on Master level through the Hanken Exchange Programme. Due to regulations of the European Union this was not possible before. Please note that the duration of your exchange is one semester only.
