Open University – an opportunity for all

Hanken's Open University offers access to university-level courses in business and economics for everyone. This means that there are no formal requirements on prior degrees.
Basic-level courses are suited for everyone, while courses on intermediate and advanced level have requirements on previous studies of the subject.
Swedish is the main language of instruction, but a number of courses on intermediate and advanced level are given in English.
Open University studies are considered part time and therefore no general student benefits are granted.
Please note:
Contact teaching courses in class during Fall 2022 may require mandatory attendance. However, there are also to some extent online courses and self-study courses.
Important: To access Hanken's user ID you need to identify yourself online through our self-service portal with Finnish bank codes. The user ID is necessary for studies at Hanken.
