Proposed funding model for the universities: education (41 %)
The goal setting: improvement of quality, efficiency, international dimension, and profilation
See below for the interpretation of indicators in the funding model in € (based on university outputs 2008–2010)
Notice: this is a zero sum game between universities in each indicator category a potentially powerful profilation tool for the ministry of education and culture

Proposed funding model for the universities: research (34 %)
See below for the interpretation of indicators in the funding model in € (based on university outputs 2008–2010)
Notice: this is a zero sum game between universities in each indicator category
The poposed funding model for the universities: the strategic component (25 %)
• Discipline specific component 8 % of the university funding: 1% ~ 16M€
1. Fine arts, both at science universities and universities of fine arts 2.75 %
2. Science 1.50 %3. Engineering 1.50 %4. Medical sciences 2.25 %
• Given to universities with education responsibility in one or more of the abovementioned fields
– Funding based on the share of the persons in the teaching and research personnel career system in the abovementioned disciplineso engineering and science ~5 000 €/person year,
medicine ~7 500 €/person year– In addition, the universities of fine arts will be funded by
31M€
• National responsibility disciplines 7 % of the university funding
– e.g. national library– training schools– coordination tasks of the university centers
• Strategic funding 10 % of the total– the ministry of education and culture will keep 25 M€
for ’special operations’
The poposed funding model for the universities: the strategic component (25 %)
1. Advancements of studies is very important• Students progressing > 55 ECTS points/year are valuable
2. Master’s degrees by international students carry extra rewards• Very important to have well working international master’s
degree programs• Double degree master’s degree agreements should be
explored
3. Publishing on high quality forums is good for the university• Publication activity of the researchers an obvious recruitment
criterion
4. Doctoral degrees by international student ’profitable’• Focus on recruiting promising students• Double degree agreements potentially important
Aim settings with explanations
5. International teaching and research personnel is valuable in the funding formula, but• our most international groups are also the most productive
ones
6. Competitive international funding brings more basic funding
7. Increasing competitive domestic funding also important for basic funding
8. The researcher career system should be widely deployed• discipline specific funding for medice, engineering, science,
and fine arts based on this indicator
Aim settings with explanations
Main themes in research of the renewed University of
Oulu strategy
What’s Up 13.12.2011Taina Pihlajaniemi
BackgroundUniversity of Oulu in 2020
• Scientifically profiled and among world’s leaders in its strongest areas
• Strong national and international networks • Promoting innovativeness and an inspiring work place for its
personnel• Strong financial base
Strategic goals of MinEdu for the universities to 2020• More efficient, more international, higher quality, more
profiled
New MinEdu funding model for universitites (2013–)• In which areas is University of Oulu strong?• In which areas are we weakest?• What can be improved and what is the time frame?
Efficient carrying out of goals and follow-up• Reporting to the University’s Board
Strategic guidance of reserach (1/3): Creative research environments and productivity
• Research institutes:– Biocenter, Infotech, Thule, +
• Researcher-based, focused research units in areas of strengths
– Centres of excellence, top RAE units, new units formed by the researchers
• More optimal use of basic resources to build synergies and critical mass
– Closer co-operation in the mining area– Other researcher-based plans
• Development of chemistry
• Increasing competitive external funding, especially international funding
• Enhancing scientific publication
• RAE 2013 and its use for strategic development
Strategic guidance of reserach (2/3): Strenghtening of the researcher base, researcher training and researcher’s career
• Implementation of the 4-step researcher career program
• Utilisation of the FiDiPro program
• Funding for professors’ research periods– Professor pool built by foundations – first call 15.12.2011–
13.1.2012
• 13 recruitment packages + 6 targeted post-docs for 2011–2015
• Tenure track program will start in 2012– joint funding schemes (50:50) and programs established by
units/faculties
• The proportion of PhDs should be increased – the goal is to increase the number of post doc positions
• Solidifying the UniOGS:n operation – management, personnel, resources
www.oulu.fi/english/research/university-oulu-graduate-school-0
• About 1000 ”current” doctoral students have registered to UniOGS
• New students admitted to UniOGS at the first call (31.10.2011)– Human sciences 23– Health & biosciences 41– Techology & natural sciences 31 (+ ~20 in progress)
• Follow-up groups for new students• Next call deadline is 31.1.2012• On-going: specific requirements of the contents of the doctoral
studies will be determined in co-operation with representatives of the different research fields at the University of Oulu
Research infrastructure program• 2010–2012 resources: different funding instruments
amount to 25 M€ 2010–2012
– program needed for 2013–2016• Enhancing our national and international profile
– planning has begun• Update of Finland’s infrastructure road map in 2013
– planning has begun
Innovation centers and other strategic co-operation• OIA centers and neworks are supported• Other strategic co-operation
–Ympäristötietotalo, Oulu Mining School, CEMIS-OULU, SHOK, VTT, Rokua foundation, Kemi-Tornio AMK, Kontinkangas operators and others
