Tampere3 What?
Tampere3 is a multidisciplinary, inspiring and internationally attractive university, which is built on a solid foundation of scientific and technological expertise. It provides students with a broad range of both theoretically and practically oriented studies.
Why?
We want to be pioneers in influencing the development of our society. The starting point is not to become more efficient or pool the existing resources. Instead, we will build an entirely new university to better meet the changing needs of our international environment. The new university will have a unique scientific profile. It will offer students more flexible study paths and ensure that students can easily progress from one degree level to another or to the working life.
Background• Tampere University of Applied Sciences (TAMK), Tampere
University of Technology (TUT), and the University of Tampere (UTA) have joined forces to build a new kind of university
• Mission: to develop a multidisciplinary, inspiring and internationally attractive research and learning environment
• The working group appointed by the presidents and rectors in October 2014 comprises Vice Presidents to prepare a proposal for
1. the profile and research areas of the academic community2. the degree structure and degree programmes which cut across
institutional boundaries, 3. the operations model for the three-pronged mission of education,
research and social impact, and 4. the plan and schedule for implementing the project.
Situation in the project
• On 25 May, the Boards of the three HEIs held respective meetings where they decided to the continuation of the process ‘Tampere3‘
• The HEIs are seeking to tighten their existing collaboration by launching projects that support the development of their activities and facilitate the establishment of the new university.
Co-operation in curriculum design
• The universities have identified fields of study in which they will start designing joint courses and study modules.
• The aim is to make it easier for students to attend courses in the partner universities and to offer some of the studies as joint courses and study modules already from the autumn semester of 2016.
Study fields
• Civil Engineering and architecture• Business economics, industrial
management and engineering, and information and knowledge management
