Everyone is welcome to join.

Finnish open universities provide support to degree students in the current exceptional situation where contact teaching at universities is suspended.

The University of Jyväskylä has decided to continue preventive actions related to the pandemic. The situation is changing rapidly and the instructions are kept updated as soon as possible.

On 16 March, the Finnish Government outlined that universities will be closed and contact teaching stopped from 18 March. Accordingly, all JYU facilities have been closed from 17 March.

Democracy and education for democracy play only a marginal role in European teacher training.

Creativity in working life can be approached as a learning process.

The Student Life team has compiled some instructions and advice to support you in this exceptional situation. Please read these instructions and share this information with your fellow students.

All guidance is given via email, phone or other agreed remote modes of connection indefinitely

The University of Jyväskylä made a good academic result again in 2019

Contact teaching at the University of Jyväskylä and teaching practice at the Teacher Training School (Normaalikoulu) will be suspended from 16 March 2020 to 22 March 2020.

Ylistö Campus at the Faculty of Mathematics and Science moves immediately to remote working and teaching in accordance with the instructions issued by the University.

In the next autumn term, teaching at JYU will start on 31 August and the orientation week for first-year students will start on 24 August 2020. Both the orientation of new students and teaching will start one week earlier than last year.
