Rector’s Review

Contributing to society is the main task and raison d’être of any university – certainly for Arcada! 2019 was a year of vision, of planning what our contribution to society could be and should be, and how to put it into practice.

Big Data Analytics and Global Development

In June 2019 Arcada’s first experts in Big Data Analytics graduated. Formally, this one-year master’s programme started in the autumn of 2018, but the foundations were laid some five years earlier when a specialized programme was started.

Entrepreneurship and Soft Skills

What does today’s student need to learn to be successful in tomorrow’s labour market? In 2019 Arcada took a giant step forward when the two projects Work-integrated Pedagogy in Higher Education (WORKPEDA) and Arcada Coaching Clinic (ACC) were initiated.

Compassionate Professionals

Today compassion is viewed as an important competence in working life, a necessary tool for people in a workplace to help deal with difficult situations and to make good, ethical choices.

Aiming for Sustainable Home Care

How can we achieve functioning and sustainable home care for the elderly? This is a frequently debated and topical issue, and certainly not without relevance at Arcada – quite the opposite.

New Healthcare Programmes

In 2019 Arcada launched two new healthcare programmes designed to answer to the needs of today’s society. Both programmes – the master’s programme Leadership for Nordic Healthcare and the bilingual two-year nursing programme organized in cooperation with Diak (Finnish-language Diacona UAS) – will start in the autumn of 2020.
