Teaching methods

Introductory lectures
Learning by doing: independent exercises, project work

Exam schedules

No exams

International connections

Learning is based on experimentation, sharing knowledge and expertise, and combining different perspectives.

Open AMK studies improve young people's and adults' working life-related skills as well as professional and technical competence. Indirectly, the course can promote the creation of decent jobs and entrepreneurship. Open AMK studies also reduce the number of young people who are not working or studying. In studies, we do not separate people according to age, gender, background, etc.

Completion alternatives

Student workload

Guided learning tasks are done both during the lessons and other time, partly in small groups.

1 ects = 27 hrs student´s work
5 ects = 135 hrs student´s work

Content scheduling

The course introduces you to different materials and their processing methods when concretizing ideas.

The course explores the possibilities of using prototypes at different levels as a communication support, idea generation method and problem-solving tool.

Exercises are done independently and in meetings in the campus prototyping spaces.
