For postgraduate (master’s) programs at Häme University of Applied Sciences (HAMK), international students must meet several academic and language requirements. Applicants are required to hold a relevant bachelor’s degree from a recognized institution and typically must have at least two years of relevant work experience after completing their undergraduate studies, as most HAMK master’s programs are professionally oriented. Proof of English language proficiency is mandatory, usually through IELTS, TOEFL, or equivalent accepted tests, unless the previous degree was completed in English. Students must also submit academic transcripts, degree certificates, a CV or resume, a motivation letter, and a copy of their passport. Some programs may additionally require entrance exams, interviews, or portfolio submissions depending on the field of study.
