Curricula and Course Descriptions
The curriculum is a description of the degree programme and its course requirements. JAMK has adopted a competence- and learning-based curriculum, in which the number of credits required for a degree has been divided into competence areas developing specific competence. The programmes and instruction in them is organised through courses, which form competence areas. With regard to content, the courses to be completed are either basic or professional studies, or involve practical training or writing the bachelor’s thesis. The competence areas and courses can be compulsory, optional or elective. The annual student workload is about 1600 hours. However, the optional studies contribute to variation in workload.
