International Opportunities at Diak
Are you considering student exchange or work placement abroad? Here you can find useful information about international opportunities for students.
For Diak students
Diak’s degree students have the possibility to complete a training or student exchange period abroad or take part in international activities at Diak.
- Studies and work placements abroad: For more information about these opportunities, please visit outgoing exchange students.
- Intensive Programmes: Diak students can gain international experience by participating in international intensive programmes at Diak or in one of our partner institutions.
- International tutoring: One of the best ways to get international experience is to become a tutor for incoming exchange students! Each semester students from our partner institutions arrive to Diak. Tutors provide help with practicalities and show the students the best parts of Diak and Finland. If you want to join, contact the student union O’Diako for more information!
- Other activities: Actively take part in international events and projects. The student union (sometimes with assistance of Diak international office) organises several events, e.g. language café for international students. You can also participate the activities of diverse organisations such as AIESEC and Erasmus Student Network.
For students from our partner institutions
- Student exchange at Diak: We offer opportunities for studies and training for international exchange students from our partner institutions.
- Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPS) coordinated by Diak: BIPs include a virtual, team-based learning period, as well as a physical mobility period in Finland.
- Virtual mobility: Diak offers online courses for students from partner universities with student mobility agreement.
