A new career center will begin operations in Arabianranta, Helsinki next week. Karriärcenter Arabia, which is launched by Arcada, Prakticum and Sveps, will offer versatile councelling services in Swedish for young people and adults.
Arcada's nursing students are the most satisfied with their education in a comparison between the Finnish universities of applied sciences. This is shown by the AVOP survey 2020, a response survey for students at the universities of applied sciences who are in the final stages of their studies.
Arcada is the first university of applied sciences to join Funidata Oy as a partner. As a shareholder, Arcada gets access to a new digital support system for teaching and studies.
Despite the fact that 2020 was an exceptional year with a transition to distance learning during the ongoing pandemic, a record number of students graduated from Arcada during the year. A total of 507 students completed their studies.
The government's restrictions presented 26.1 continue as before. Therefore, Arcada's instructions for preventing spread of infection continue to apply throughout period 3, ie until 21.3.
AI driven Nordic Health and Welfare is a research programme where AI solutions are applied to social and health care within the Nordic welfare and social design framework, using a transdisciplinary and user driven approach.
Arcada brings its library services closer to the customers and ties its closer to the research at Arcada. The goal is to increase the scientific competence among students and staff. This will include the idea “a place for space”, so that everyone who is interested in research at Arcada can easily access services, support and meet up with others with the same interest.
