Instructions for Incoming Cross-Institutional Students
Students from other Finnish higher education institutions can take part in network studies offered by the University of Jyväskylä (JYU) through cross-institutional study arrangements.
This page provides instructions on how to register for network study courses offered by the University of Jyväskylä as a student of another Finnish higher education institution. You may include these studies as part of the elective studies in your degree. You are eligible to complete the studies if you are registered as an attending student and your study right is valid at your home institution. You may only participate in studies offered through educational cooperation networks to which you have study rights.
How do I register as a cross-institutional student for the University of Jyväskylä’s network studies?
Registration for cross-institutional study courses offered by the University of Jyväskylä is completed through your home institution’s Sisu or Peppi system.
Instructions for cross-institutional study registration can be found on your home institution’s website or by searching online, for example, using the search term “UEF cross-institutional study”.
Validity of Cross-Institutional Study Rights
The validity period of a cross-institutional study right varies between networks. Study rights are granted for individual courses. Most study rights are valid for one academic year.
Your right to complete studies at the University of Jyväskylä ends when your study right at your home institution expires.
Important Information About Registration
When you register for network studies through your home institution’s Sisu or Peppi system, you will automatically receive a network study right if you are eligible.
Before you can begin your studies and log in to JYU Moodle, you must activate your University of Jyväskylä user account.
Where can I find the course learning environment and study materials?
The University of Jyväskylä uses JYU Moodle and TIM as its learning environments.
Once you have activated your University user account, you can use it to log in to the learning environments. If your course registration has been successful, you will find the course materials in the learning environment and can begin your studies.
When will the course offerings for the next academic year be published?
