About the course

A 210 ECTS business degree run by TAMK Proakatemia. Students learn in teams by running their own real businesses, with team coaches, dialogue and weekly reflection. It covers leadership and management, sales and marketing, financial management and teamwork.

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • TAMK publishes no specific Leaving Certificate rules. In Finland a completed Leaving Cert that meets Irish entry requirements gives general eligibility, but CAO points and H/O grades are not used for ranking. Confirm with TAMK admissions (admissions.tamk@tuni.fi).
  • Selection is by a pre-task assignment submitted with your application, then an online interview with academic staff. No Leaving Cert subject or maths level is listed.
  • English: applicants educated outside Finland need an English certificate (for example IELTS 6.0), but TAMK exempts upper secondary education completed in the EU. Get a school letter confirming you were taught and assessed in English. Gaelscoil students should check whether they need a test.

  • TAMK publishes a tuition fee of 12,000 euro per academic year for non-EU/EEA citizens. EU/EEA citizens, including Irish citizens, pay no tuition. TAMK mentions no application fee.
This is not a lecture-based business degree. You learn by setting up and running a real team company, so the pre-task and interview test your motivation and teamwork rather than exam grades.
