University of Eastern Finland History

The University of Eastern Finland was established through a merger of two formerly independent universities, the University of Joensuu and the University of Kuopio. These ended to exist when the University of Eastern Finland began to operate in January 2010. The new Universities Act further prolonged the autonomy of Finnish universities by offering each university a separate legal personality, either as a public corporation or a foundation.
