Solutions for the great challenges of humankind 

Here at the School of Electrical Engineering our students and researchers get a chance to roll up their sleeves, because we conduct a lot of applied research in addition to theoretical research. Our investments in first-class facilities and research equipment ensure that our hard work will help society evolve. 

We are a very close-knit and international community consisting of people from different backgrounds. Everything we do is for the common good, whether it is greener technology or better solutions for healthcare. Artificial intelligence is closely related to our work, and with the help of new innovations we maintain Finland’s competitive edge in the energy, environment, and healthcare industries. 

We have three departments and one separate unit.

Prejudices are more complex than stereotypes suggest

According to social psychologists, individuals who belong to one’s own group, as well as those associated with highly esteemed and approachable groups, more often elicit admiration or respect compared to those who belong to less esteemed or perceived-as-distant groups.
