Since many Arcada students choose to become entrepreneurs we also want to give our students the opportunity to get an insight in entrepreneurship and a chance to try out business ideas.

Parallel programmes maximize the learning experience
The labour market today is truly international. The degree programmes in English are executed in close cooperation with related programmes in Swedish. The idea is to make the most of the existing network and the benefits of well-established programmes. Also, the model gives twice as many students the chance to learn their professions in a genuinely multi-cultural environment.
