Kajaani University of Applied Sciences

International applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent qualification from a recognized institution, with certified transcripts and, if necessary, translations into English, Finnish, or Swedish. Since master’s programs are delivered in English, candidates are required to demonstrate English language proficiency through tests such as IELTS, TOEFL, or equivalent certificates, or through other acceptable proof as outlined by the university. Depending on the specific program, applicants may also need to submit a motivation letter or statement of purpose, a CV/resume, and sometimes letters of recommendation to support their application. All materials must be uploaded during the online application process via Studyinfo.fi within the official admission periods, and meeting these criteria allows international students to be considered for KAMK’s applied Master’s degrees.
