Studies under the flexible study right agreement (JOO)

Based on a national agreement on flexible study rights (JOO), a student who has a right to complete a degree at a Finnish university (home university) may apply for a fixed-term right to pursue studies at another Finnish university (target university). The flexible studies must be included in the student's degree at the home university. Students may apply for a JOO study right for an individual course or module (e.g. a minor). The agreement covers both graduate and post-graduate students.

Doctoral students can apply at any time, but it is advisable to apply within the application periods, preferably during the term before the course begins. At the latest, apply four weeks before the course registration begins.

Department of Computer Science has established a study cooperation agreement with Master’s programmes in Data Science and Computer Science of University of Helsinki as of 1 January 2021. The agreement applies only to doctoral students in the Department of Computer Science and gives you a possibility to take courses without applying the flexible study right.
