Enhance your skills for free with FITech’s summer courses

FITech is a network of Finnish universities of technology that offers free studies to all Finns and people permanently living in Finland. The network is coordinated by Aalto University. As the courses offered through FITech are part of the universities’ degree programs, official study credits (ECTS) are granted for completed courses. Adult learners can also receive FITech’s digital badge for completed courses, which can be added, for example, to a LinkedIn profile to showcase acquired skills.

In summer 2026, FITech offers a diverse selection of courses related to sustainability, cybersecurity, and future technologies. You can start from the basics or delve deeper into topics such as programming, information security, 5G technology, sustainability, and batteries. 

Applications for FITech’s summer courses open on 14 April 2026 at 9:00. Complement your degree or deepen your knowledge with free university courses! You can find all courses on FITech’s website. Read more and apply!
