Tiivistelmä
The fourth publication of the Finnish Network for International Programmes (FINNIPS) is a celebration of the ten years of cooperation conducted within the network. Since the end of 2009, Finnish Universities of Applied Sciences (UASs) have joined forces to implement international education marketing and student recruitment together to attract global talents to Finnish higher education. By 2019, the FINNIPS network has promoted Finnish education and arranged entrance examinations in over 20 countries around the world and, with these efforts, created a significant channel for foreign degree students to come to Finland.
The publication describes the roles and tasks of the actors implementing the cooperation. Moreover, it looks into the results of the work conducted and reflects on the current issues and future development prospects of the FINNIPS network and UASs’ international education in general. The articles of the publication are written by experts of international higher education in Finnish UASs and the Finnish National Agency for Education, EDUFI. They provide versatile views to the development of UASs’ internationalisation and introduce concrete examples on the development of the admission process and international degree programmes. Furthermore,
the articles serve various insights regarding the impact of Finnish UASs’ international education on different levels stretching from students’ personal experiences to regional and societal effects.
