Arcada Campus
Arcada opens the 2026–2027 academic year with a festive celebration while also launching its 30th anniversary year. The anniversary year marks three decades of education, research, and societal impact.
Are you a bachelor's student who studies at another Finnish university of applied sciences (UAS) or university and wishes to transfer to Arcada? Then here is your chance: Arcada's transfer application is open 30 April–15 May 2026.
Arcada University of Applied Sciences has been granted funding for an increased number of new study places in its Business Administration programme. The decision forms part of the government’s efforts to raise the level of education and skills and to meet labour market needs.
Arcada is filled with ambitious, hard-working students. One of them is Anton Truss, a third-year student in the Mechanical and Sustainable Engineering programme. Not only was he the only undergraduate and the youngest participant to get selected to participate in the RACE 2025 competition, but his team also saw major success and placed third.
