President's review:

the year of change

The year 2011 was the last year that Satakunta University of Applied Sciences (SAMK) was maintained by the City of Pori. The City of Pori had maintained SAMK since 1997. The maintenance and the operating licence were transferred to Satakunta University of Applied Sciences Ltd at the beginning of 2012. Indeed, the year was strongly characterised by preparations for the change of maintaining organisation. The Government Programme and the included saving obligation directed at the universities of applied sciences gave rise to reflection also in the Satakunta region. The reform of the network and financing system of the universities of applied sciences aims at a savings of EUR 51 million from the 2011 level to the 2015 level. When the municipal part of the financing is added to this, education provided by the universities of applied sciences will be subject to savings of more than EUR 120 million. This means a savings of approximately 13%. In October, Satakunta University of Applied Sciences received the Ministry of Education and Culture’s feedback, according to which it has to cut the number of entrant places in 2013 altogether by 142. This cut covers only a part of the forthcoming savings obligations. The obligation to cut the number of entrant places mainly concerned the fields of technology, transport and culture. At the end of the year, SAMK already decided that, in 2012, no new students will be admitted to the degree programmes in Chemical Engineering, as well as Media and Communication Studies. We also continued efforts to target further cuts and savings. In 2011, two surveys were commenced, focusing on the possibilities of concentrating all academic activities to a single campus in Pori and Rauma, respectively. Intensification and modernisation of activities is the basis for these surveys. The earliest realistic time for the concentration of the activities is the year 2015. The year 2011 was the year in which our new research programme was actually put into place. The two main themes of the programme are “Energy and Environment of the Future” and “Intelligence for Industry and Services”. During the year, our research programme successfully met the challenges that had been placed on it in terms of effectiveness of research, transfer of competence and networking. Staff well-being was a particular development target during the year. The “Staff Well-being in Change” project was implemented in cooperation with the Satakunta Occupational Health Services. The project enabled the staff to stop and think about their health and physical condition and to participate in joint discussions with the work community. Financially, we remained on a sound basis in 2011, and the annual margin was clearly positive. The total number of awarded degrees increased, when compared to the previous year, and the graduates’ views on the quality of instruction slightly improved. On the national level, instruction provided by SAMK remained among the best. I wish to express my warm gratitude to our stakeholders, staff and students for their contributions to SAMK in 2011.

WORKING TOWARDS A NEW PROFILE As regards the basic operations in the Faculty of Business and Culture, 2011 can be described as a year of business as usual. On the other hand, the change of the maintaining organisation involved several adjustments that we, in retrospect, successfully managed, although we did not always think we would. Changes of this magnitude are always challenging in a large organisation. The Faculty of Business and Culture has schools in four locations: Pori, Rauma, Huittinen and Kankaanpää. The operations in these locations have been recently profiled so that the division of labour is clear, and there will be no overlapping activities in the future. These profiles will be introduced gradually by the autumn of 2013: innovative business services, financial administration and tourism business in Pori; international business and logistics in Rauma; business law, public administration and financing in Huittinen; sculpture and painting in Kankaanpää. Specialisation in these topics means that particular focus will be placed on them although there are other elements too. A profile is a kind of showcase for the operations. This reform goes hand in hand with the reform of the curricula, which steer and ensure the practical implementation of a profile. The largest changes will take place in the curriculum of the degree programme in Business Administration, and the other degree programmes will also be subject to a varying number of reforms and changes.These reforms will provide the students with new, interesting content that is updated on the basis of the needs of working life. Our aim is also to promote the smooth and meaningful progress of studies. If we want to put the objectives of our faculty in a nutshell, the best way to do this is to examine our motto. It describes the mindset and the operational spirit that we seek in our daily operations. We will attain our objectives with greater certainty if we are able operate in the manner described below as well as we can: ”We want a future where everyone is required to live in the present moment and where actions and defaults make a difference – where innovativeness and creativity are more important than the old structures and where the constructive breaking down of barriers is commonplace.”

Eeva-Liisa Moisio, Dean PLENTY OF NEW DEGREES In the Faculty of Social Services and Health Care, 2011 was characterised by a strong climate of development. Development activities were further systematised, and responsibility for the development of degree programmes was increasingly transferred to the teachers in charge of the degree programmes. The role of the degree programme coordinators as the leaders of the development of degree programmes was enhanced. The success of the operations crucially depended on the commitment of the teachers of all degree programmes to the development of their respective programme. In 2011, priorities in the development of the Bachelor-level degree programmes included completion of studies within a given time frame, enhancement of the thesis process, development of practical training and training of supervisors in charge of practical training. Priorities in the Master-level degree programmes included shortening the time required for completing degrees, development of online instruction, increase in the ECTS credits earned for RDI projects and cooperation between higher education institutions. Development of other staff activities focused on the clarification of activities and further development of activities to support the core processes. Measured with the number of degrees awarded, the faculty was very successful. A total of 348 students of social services and health care graduated in 2011. Of these, 225 graduated in youth education, 103 in adult education and 20 in Master-level degree programmes. The number of ECTS credits earned for RDI projects also increased significantly, which is partly due to the enhancement of the thesis processes. Development of multiprofessionalism was an important aspect in the development of education. The faculty launched a large, horizontal development project that concerns practical training in the whole faculty. In 2011, piloting of the so-called clinic teacher model for students of nursing and physiotherapy was introduced. This project will continue and expand to comprise also the social services. Multiprofessionalism is also strengthened by practical training in the Soteekki service centre as part of the curriculum in all Bachelor-level degree programmes, which enables the students to learn entrepreneurial and multiprofessional working methods. Development of education is also significantly influenced by the development project on simulation teaching, which was launched by benchmarking and by training of the teachers involved in the project. The project aims to create a high-quality environment for multiprofessional learning where students in all degree programmes can practice customer situations of real working life in a simulated environment, in multiprofessional teams. Thus, development work will also be strong in years to come.

Matti Lähdeniemi, Dean NEW WORKING LIFE, NEW ENGINEER In 2011, there were 2,086 students in the Bachelor-level degree programmes in Engineering (youth and adult education). The number of students in the Master-level degree programmes was 69. In youth and adult education, 241 students completed a Bachelor’s degree, and 16 students completed a Master’s degree. Bachelor-level education started in the degree programmes in automation engineering, environmental engineering (in English), chemical engineering, mechanical and production engineering, logistics, construction engineering, electrical engineering, information technology, as well as industrial engineering and management. Master-level education started in the degree programmes in automation engineering, as well as health and welfare technology. Representatives of the faculty were involved in the development of new engineering education in the steering group for the nationwide “Inssi” project and in the development groups dealing with the learning process, educational structure and marketing communication. In the “Inssi” project, engineering education was developed in cooperation with experts in technology and transport, students and working life. Results were presented at the “Inssi” seminar in January 2011. Among the most notable results is the reform of the degree programme structure that will be further developed in 2012 and is also required for the Ministry and Education and Culture’s development activities concerning the universities of applied sciences. The project publications (“Insinöörikoulutuksen uusi maailma” vol. I–III) are downloadable in Finnish on the website of the project. Offshore education is interesting examples of regional educational needs. As a higher education institution in the Satakunta region that pays special attention to energy technologies, we have developed technologies and scientific and educational competence related to solar energy, e.g. in the form of the solar energy solutions for the new indoor swimming pool in Pori. The RYM-SHOK project, managed by the National Technology Agency of Finland (Tekes), Loura cooperation in the field of maritime management and the LED and EGMDSS projects rewarded during the National RDI Days, are examples of our dynamic project activities. We annually participate in the Automation Fair. Every spring, our students of construction engineering arrange a building fair as a specific project; the fair annually gathers 7,000–8,000 visitors. SAMK is also known for student entrepreneurship, which is presented in the recent publication “Yrittäjyyden asialla” created in cooperation between the higher education institutions in the Satakunta region.

16


In the “Inssi� project, facilitation generated new ways of discussing the development of the educational structure.

Strategic partnership cooperation was a significant factor for the faculty in the recognition of competence and RDI needs in working life and in the incorporation of working life expertise into education. Partnership activities will continue, and they will be developed in the fields of our horizontal university of applied sciences. Internationality was increasing. In 2011, 22 students participated in student exchanges and 30 students in trainee exchanges. There were 34 incoming exchange students, as well as trainees from Italy and China. Sixteen persons participated in teacher and staff exchanges, and 49 persons attended research, development and innovation projects, researcher exchanges and seminars. The corresponding numbers of incoming teachers and staff were 9 and 31 respectively. Furthermore, visitors from a Belgian partner institution participated in courses at SAMK.

APPLICANTS The number of primary applicants for youth education leading to a Bachelor’s degree was 2.27 per entrant place. The number of applicants for adult education leading to a Bachelor’s degree increased compared to the previous year; there were 4.16 primary applicants per entrant place. The number of applicants and entrant places for Master-level degree programmes also grew. The number of primary applicants was 1.91 per entrant place. In the joint application procedure in the spring, the number of applicants increased by 10.5% for youth education leading to a degree, by 13.2% for adult education leading to a degree and 38.8% for Master-level degree programmes, compared to the previous year.

Of the applicants, 66% were from the Satakunta region, 12% from Southwest Finland, and 11% from the Tampere region. The geographical location was the most important factor for applying for SAMK, followed by the comprehensive educational options and the high quality of education and research. The majority of applicants for adult education leading to a Bachelor’s degree were female (76%), and most of them lived in the Satakunta region, Southwest Finland or the Tampere region. For the fourth year in a row, the most common basic education was a vocational qualification (51%), and most of the applicants were employed (77%). Flexibility surpassed geographical location as the most important criteria for applying.

18

The majority of applicants for Master-level degree programmes were female (65%) employees from the Satakunta region (77%), holding a Bachelor’s degree from a university of applied sciences. The geographical location and the flexibility of the studies were the most important criteria for applying.


STUDYING online studying, student union SAMMAKKO, employment situation, OPALA

A Bachelor’s degree can be completed at SAMK either in youth education, which takes the form of full-time studies, or in adult education, in which case the studies can be completed in addition to a regular job by way of multiform learning. Applications for a Master-level degree programme can be submitted by those with work experience of three years after completing the Bachelor’s degree. The degree may be complemented with professional specialisation studies, which are available in various fields. Studies can also be completed at SAMK in the form of open studies. This way, it is possible to gather ECTS credits for future degree studies. ONLINE STUDYING AS PART OF EVERYDAY OPERATIONS SAMK introduced the procedural instructions for the implementation of online instruction. The Finnish Online University of Applied Sciences, online instruction and online learning are already

established elements of everyday operations. Of SAMK’s students, 188 were studying at the Finnish Online University of Applied Sciences and completed 714 ECTS credits in total. In 2011, the students of SAMK earned 31,363 ECTS credits through virtual studies. The web conferencing solution, Adobe Connect, used in addition to the Moodle learning environment, was used increasingly during 2011. It is used comprehensively in lecturing, thesis supervision and tutor discussions. A seminar on online instruction, entitled “Learning in the Cloud”, was arranged for teachers by SAMK in cooperation with the Online Instruction Working Group of the higher education institutions in the Satakunta region. SoleOPS / HOPS SoleOPS is a browser-based tool for planning instruction and teachers’ working hours. With it, it is possible to prepare the curricula for

19

arriving student groups, educational options, implementation plans, course descriptions and teachers’ working hour plans. SoleOPS is used for planning instruction in all degree programmes at SAMK. For degree programme coordinators and teachers, SoleOPS is a source of information on the educational options during the academic year, course implementation plans and teachers’ working hour plans. For students, the system offers an easy way to access all of SAMK’s educational options and the information on their personal studies, from the curricula up to the implementation plans of individual courses. Course feedback is an important part of the feedback system concerning education. In 2011, students gave feedback on 14,418 courses in total. As of August, feedback was given through the new SoleOPS system.


Jyri Sallinen, SAMMAKKO’s Chairperson

SAMMAKKO The Student Union SAMMAKKO looks after the students’ interests in all the campus cities of SAMK. Altogether, SAMMAKKO represents approximately 6,500 students at SAMK as well as at regional and national levels.

Also, the turnout percentage, 24.3%, in the autumn’s representative council election was the highest of all time, and among the highest percentages in the whole of Finland. The most significant student events of the year – Wapprobatur and Kurnajaiset – were attended by more people than ever before. The introduction of the Student House Saikku in the spring was the highlight of the year. In particular, lunches offered by Saikku became immensely popular during the year, but Saikku also turned out to be an excellent venue for dozens of events of different sizes and styles. As regards the supervision of the students’ interests, SAMMAKKO made strong contributions and gave a number of opinions in the working groups of SAMK and the higher education institutions in the Satakunta region. Tutor training was arranged for the second time with partly English-language content, and for the fifth time in Silokallio, Kullaa, gathering also more than 100 SAMMAKKO tutors this time.

20

At the national level, SAMMAKKO was actively involved in the activities of the Union of Students at Finnish Universities of Applied Sciences (SAMOK). The most visible example of this was the “Student Financial Aid Must Be Indexed!” campaign built around the parliamentary election. In 2011, SAMMAKKO’s Board consisted of Chairperson Jyri Sallinen, Vice Chairperson Emmi Holsti and members Sini Myllykoski, Annamari Lähteenmäki, Heini Oksman, Minna Alenius, Scott Leopold, Antti Laine (until the end of August), and as of beginning of August Mirella Koski and Tuomas Jalava. The Student Union has the following employees: Secretary General Juha Lamminen, Clerical Secretary Mari Lengman, Secretary for Organisational Affairs Marianne Honkasalo and, as of March, Secretary for Tutor Affairs Sini Ahola. Furthermore, Chairperson of the Representative Council Jarkko Viljanen and Vice Chairperson Julia Alin participated in the daily operations and decision making of the Student Union.


EMPLOYMENT SITUATION The OPALA survey of graduates, conducted by the Finnish Ministry of Education, provides information on the employment situation of the graduates at the time of graduation. At the graduation stage, of those with a job, 44.3% moved to another employer, 21.1% continued in the same duties at the same workplace, and 8.0% commenced in new duties at the same workplace. In 2011, 15.1% of students at the graduation stage were unemployed, which is 5% less than in the previous year. Students graduating from the social and health care sector enjoyed the best employment situation. More than half (63.8%) of the graduates from Master-level programmes continued at the same workplace. Of the graduates, 10.6% commenced in new duties at the same workplace, and 4.3% started or continued to work as entrepreneurs. A completely new job awaited 12.8% of graduates, and 4.3% were unemployed.

CONTINUING EDUCATION CENTRE

The Continuing Education Centre launched professional specialisation studies in eight different fields, of which the professional specialisation studies in Animal Physiotherapy are still unique in Finland. In total, 251 students completed professional specialisation studies in Business Administration, Technology, Fine Arts, Social Services and Health Care during the year. Compared to the previous year, the number ECTS credits earned with open studies decreased slightly. Of the locations of study, Huittinen’s share of ECTS credits particularly increased: students completed 216 ECTS credits in total. In 2010, they had completed 44 ECTS credits. At the “Friday Highlights” seminars, the audience was confronted with topics such as joy of work, troublesome co-workers at the workplace, laws applicable to social media, as well as happiness and attitude. As in the previous years, a series of seminars was arranged for entrepreneurs in cooperation with the Enterprise Association of the Satakunta Region, and representatives of family businesses gathered at the invitational seminars coordinated by the Continuing Education Centre and arranged by the Family Business Network in the Satakunta region.

Mikko Kuustonen, a well-known Finnish musician and talk show host, has also refined his views on time, calmness and influencing. He gives lectures and arranges seminars focusing on these topics throughout Finland, also at SAMK’s “Friday Highlights” seminar.

development and employment of the participants. As regards employment, the latest available data indicate that, of the 28 persons who completed their study period, 13 are employed and 11 have applied for further training. Five persons entitled to flexicurity are still pursuing studies. Eight persons entitled to flexicurity applied for degree programmes at SAMK, and three of them have already graduated. FROM SURVEYS OF COMPETENCE TO TRAINING SESSIONS The number of enterprises involved in the OSTU competence project rose to 40 by the end of 2011. The participating enterprises have made extensive surveys of competence, and on the basis of their results, training designed to meet the needs has been arranged. The duration of the project has been prolonged until the end of 2012, which makes the training sessions available to hundreds of participants during the project period.

JOINTLY PURCHASED TRAINING AND BUSINESS TRAINING With the existing framework agreements of the Continuing Education Centre, it is possible to arrange labour market training related to recruitment and staff development, jointly purchased by the employer and the government. In 2011, jointly purchased training was again arranged in various fields in cooperation between the Satakunta Centre for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment and enterprises in the region. Of the self-financed, tailored business training sessions, the most popular training modules, in quantitative terms, focused on ventilation and air conditioning, as well as Office 2010. APPRENTICESHIP AND APPRENTICESHIPTYPE TRAINING A one-year training module was financed by the Apprenticeship Centre of the Satakunta region and arranged to meet the needs of superiors in

23

local authorities. The module was attended by 26 persons working as superiors. The first group of students attending tertiary apprenticeship-type training graduated. This training, Gerontological Nursing (30 ECTS), was carried out in cooperation between universities of applied sciences.


INTERNATIONALITY

In 2011, altogether 116 international degree students were studying at SAMK. Most international degree students came from China (22), Nigeria (10), Estonia (9) and Russia (8). The number of international degree students is increasing. DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNATIONALITY THROUGH STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS SAMK has concluded two strategic partnership agreements with which internationality is developed and deepened even more comprehensively than before. The two important partners of SAMK are Hogeschool Zuyd in Maastricht, The Netherlands, and Dundalk

Institute of Technology in Ireland. All of our faculties have significant cooperation with both, in the form of student and teacher exchanges, as well as RDI and other development projects. Cooperation with Dundalk, related to instruction, will be deepened with long-term teacher exchanges: a teacher from Dundalk will be working at SAMK for a whole year. SAMK emphasised the development of cooperation with Asia during the year and coordinated the student exchanges through the India network of the Finnish universities of applied sciences with two Indian higher education institutions. SAMK is also one of the most active

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND INNOVATION ACTIVITIES

SAMK’s research, development and innovation (RDI) activities are based on the anticipation of changes and the recognition of weak signals on regional, national and international levels. RDI activities are carried out to meet the research, development and innovation needs of companies and corporations. Priority areas determined in SAMK’s strategy are knowledge-intensive entrepreneurship during studies, welfare expertise, environment, energy, innovative services and processes, as well as automation and mechanical engineering. RESEARCH PROGRAMME UNTIL 2013 The scientific framework for the RDI activities is provided by the confirmed research programme for 2010‒2013. The thematic areas based on the programme are “Energy and Environment of the Future” and “Intelligence for Industry and Services”. SAMK’s RDI activities in 2011 were characterised by an increase in funding and strengthening of versatility and internationality. User-driven research strengthened along with the research programme, highlighting issues such as accessibility and well-being. The user-driven approach is expected to bring out new research departures and to increase both the interest and the effectiveness of the regional RDI activities. Examples of the largest research projects include the project “Energy, Intelligence, Competitiveness and Cooperation through the Development of the Innovation Environment”, focusing on the transfer of competence (budget: approx. EUR 750,000) and “SolarForum” related to the

Satakunta University of Applied Sciences is also well represented in the quality assurance and development work related to the RDI activities of higher education institutions through the development network AMKTutka of the Finnish universities of applied sciences. The purpose of


this network is to promote the performance and effectiveness of RDI activities, the innovation processes and the internationality of RDI activities. In 2011, SAMK’s research programme met the expectations placed on it in terms of effectiveness of research, transfer of competence and networking. COMMON TOPICS AT SATAKORKEA Satakorkea is a horizontal entity constituted by the higher education institutions in the Satakunta region. It provides students with versatile competence and a new kind of expertise, offers information and high-quality RDI services and supports entrepreneurship and business operations. Common topics at Satakorkea are related to competence in energy, entrepreneurship, experiences, services, health and well-being and to the development of flexible learning opportunities under the topics Competent Satakunta, Affluent Satakunta and Accessible Satakunta. ENTERPRISE ACCELERATOR AS THE FLAGSHIP OF KNOWLEDGE-INTENSIVE STUDENT ENTREPRENEURSHIP SAMK has played an active role in the quality assurance and development work related to entrepreneurial growth. For example, we act in the entrepreneurship and innovation network FINPIN, whose task is to strengthen and promote competence- and innovation-based entrepreneurship at the universities of applied sciences. The development of joint quality thinking will, in future, translate into stronger RDI

activities and better visibility; hence, it is important to be at the core of the development work.

months of 2012, 14 new enterprise accelerator agreements were already concluded.

In over ten years, SAMK’s Enterprise Accelerator has activated more than 200 agreement-based enterprise processes, of which nearly all have led to the establishment of a functioning enterprise. The impact on employment is close to 300. In 2011, 31 enterprise accelerator agreements were concluded. Of these, 14 commenced concrete operations as enterprises run by students and based on academic competence. The trend seems to be increasing: during the first three

The annual events of the Enterprise Accelerator include the Entrepreneurship Seminar, which in 2011 focused on local activities. A book on the promotion of entrepreneurship was published at the seminar. SAMK’s Enterprise Accelerator Entrepreneur of the Year was elected during the annual Staff Day in August. In 2011, this award was given to communications entrepreneur Leena Roskala.

27


Leena Roskala, the Enterprise Accelerator Entrepreneur of 2011, says it is not easy to become a worthy communications and advertising agency in the Satakunta region, but she almost always enjoys her work.

FINPIN, the entrepreneurship network of the Finnish universities of applied sciences, acknowledged SAMK’s Enterprise Accelerator activities at its annual seminar in the autumn of 2011. THE YEAR OF GROWTH FOR RDI ACTIVITIES In 2011, the total volume of the project base at Satakunta University of Applied Sciences was approx. EUR 9 million. Of this, the actual outcome in research, development and innovation activities was EUR 4.5 million, which is 16% more than in the previous year. The growth is visible in all fields. Customer funding amounted to approx. EUR 600,000. The number of RDI partners was over 800, and that of international network partners doubled and was over 300. Seventeen international projects were implemented. In 2011, publishing activities were extensive on international and regional levels alike. Approximately 120 international and national publications and presentations were produced during the year.

The activities are based on customer-oriented cooperation and the staff’s solid basic competence. Of the researchers involved in the research programme, 11 held a doctorate in 2011. The number of man-years was 63.7, i.e. seven more than in the previous year. The increase was visible in all fields. Projects involved 1,280 students, which is approximately 450 more than in 2010. The number of RDI staff was 218, i.e. 50 more than in 2010. A significant, triple increase took place in the number of ECTS credits earned for RDI projects, which was now 12,360 ECTS. The change was the most notable in the Faculty of Business and Culture. When project-based theses are added to the ECTS credits earned for projects, the average number of ECTS credits per student was 4.5. At SAMK, 87% of the theses were project-based. The year 2011 was a year of growth for research, development and innovation activities and provided a good basis for further expansion in 2012.

HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN THE SATAKUNTA REGION

Satakorkea Satakunnan korkeakoulut

SATAKORKEA Satakorkea is constituted by the higher education institutions in the Satakunta region: the Pori Unit of Diaconia University of Applied Sciences, Satakunta University of Applied Sciences, university units of the Pori University Consortium and the University of Turku’s Department of Teacher Education in Rauma. Cooperation largely takes place in development groups, whose activities are coordinated by a management group. Satakorkea had a part-time planning officer in 2011. Satakorkea’s strategy for 2011–2015 was completed at the beginning of the year. According to the strategy, cooperation takes place in the following areas: education, instruction, RDI activities, marketing and communication and, associated with these, library and information services, internationalisation of students, staff and working life cooperation, as well as career and recruitment services. Diaconia University of Applied Sciences (Diak) and Satakunta University of Applied Sciences (SAMK) together arrange education leading to a Master’s degree. Master-level degree programmes in Health Promotion and Social Services commence every other year in cooperation between these two institutions.

In instruction, cooperation between business administration and economic sciences is already significant: several compulsory and elective courses are carried out in cooperation between SAMK and the University of Turku’s School of Economics. In the future studies carried out in cooperation will already be more visible from the curricula. Cooperation has also increased in the social and health sector. Cooperation takes place between Diak, SAMK, Turku School of Economics and the University of Tampere. Turku School of Economics, the University of Tampere and SAMK have together implemented the Welfare Management Studies within the Master’s Degree Programme in Welfare Management. Flexible learning environments have made it easy for students of different higher education institutions to participate. In spite of the available educational options, student mobility in the social and health sector is still low. Student mobility requires very active and targeted marketing and recruitment, as well as cooperation concerning compulsory courses. In the field of technology, one joint course in electronics was carried out in cooperation between Tampere University of Technology and SAMK. Cooperation also takes place in instruction in languages, environmental research and cultural studies. www.satakorkea.fi PROMOTING ENTREPRENEURSHIP The higher education institutions in the Satakunta region aim to encourage the students and educate them for entrepreneurship. Part of each student’s entrepreneurship studies is covered by the flexible study possibilities.

30

Entrepreneurial education is particularly visible in studies where there is cooperation with companies and corporations. It also leads to the establishment of real-life enterprises. The higher education institutions promote the cooperation between micro companies, growth companies and higher education institutions. The aim is to create new enterprises, to strengthen the business operations of the enterprises and to utilise innovation processes in order to enhance competitiveness. In the autumn, Satakorkea’s Entrepreneurship Group produced a book on the promotion of entrepreneurship.

A PLACE FOR CONNECTING AND MEETING Created in cooperation with Satakorkea, Apparaatti offers companies and students support provided by higher education institutions and expert sparring for developing and marketing new products and services. Students thus have an unconventional opportunity for demonstrating their competence and learning something new. Companies can develop their operations in horizontal cooperation. www.apparaatti.fi
