At the Open University you can complete official study modules, which are offered in the fields of business and technology. If you are interested in language studies, you can start by exploring the page for language and communications studies, where you will find more information about the languages you can study at the Open University. 

The open university pathway is an alternative to the entrance examination if you want to become a degree student at one of our bachelor's programmes taught in Finnish/English. By completing pathway studies in technology or business, it is possible to be admitted as a degree student at Aalto University without entrance examinations and regardless of your previous educational background.

If you are still looking for your direction and want to explore what Aalto has to offer, take a look at the themed study modules. Themed study modules (available in summer 2026) are also suitable for people who have no previous university study experience, as the studies included in them have no prerequisite requirements.
