Founded in 1934 (predecessor: Jyväskylä Teacher Training College, 1863 — the first Finnish-medium teacher college). Approximately 15,500 students. Particularly distinguished in educational sciences, sport sciences, and information technology. The 1863 origin makes JYU a historic anchor of Finnish-language education at a time when Swedish and Russian dominated Finnish public life.
Always confirm a university's current accreditation with
the named national authority, and that the qualification is recognised in
the country where you intend to use it, before enrolling or paying any
fees. AlmiStudy records information to help you check — it is not an
endorsement.
Why this is free
AlmiStudy is part of AlmiWorld. It is free because its purpose is to
help people find their way to education — and the wider project
supports the Shamool Foundation, a free school for street children in
Lahore (60 students, lunch, books and uniforms provided).
