Quotas and restrictions:

The minor is for students of technology, especially industrial engineering and management.

Students in the Finnish bachelor's programme (Kemian tekniikan kandidaattiohjelma) cannot take this minor, but it is open for students in the Chemical Engineering major of the Aalto Bachelor's Programme in Science and Technology.

Application process:

No separate application process, the minor is open to all students in the target group. 

In addition to lectures and theoretical studies, the minor and its courses include calculation exercises completed in groups and/or individually as well as project and laboratory work.
