Studies
Finnish history can be studied as major subject only in Finnish because most of the courses are held in Finnish. Occasionally the Department offers separate courses in English that exchange students can attend. The exchange students can also agree with the staff to take written literature exams and/or write essays in English. Finnish history curricula guide (HuK = BA)
