High number of new students to the Master's degree programme

This year Hanken received 454 applications to the Master's degree studies in English. An exceptionally high number of the applicants, 45 %, fulfilled the general eligibility requirements.

A total of 106 students have accepted the admission offer, which is the highest number since tuition fees were introduced in Finland in 2017 for students outside of the EU/EEA -region. The introduction caused an initial fluctuation in the number of international applicants, but the results of this year’s application round suggest that the initial effect of the introduction has stabilised, and increasingly qualified and motivated applicants choose Hanken. Out of all admitted students, 41% hold a non-Finnish passport.

The most popular specialisations were Financial Analysis and Business Development and Business and Management, with an emphasis on the tracks Finance, Marketing and International Strategy and Sustainability.

Good luck to all our newly admitted MSc students, we look forward to seeing you at the end of August!
