If there are not enough eligible applicants by the application deadline, the Head of the School of Computing at UEF may decide to extend the application period. However, the admission results will still be announced according to the original schedule outlined later in this document. Applicants who submit their applications during the extended application period cannot be admitted ahead of eligible applicants who applied during the original application period. A supplementary application round may be arranged in August, if needed, by the decision of the Head of the School of Computing at UEF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eligibility criteria<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Eligible applicants are<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>TUT-students<\/strong> who hold a BSc degree from TUT and have been nominated by TUT to study at UEF.

If the revised double degree agreement between TUT and UEF permits a larger cohort, the maximum number of admitted students may be increased accordingly for the 2027 admission rounds. Applicants who are not initially admitted may be placed on a numbered waiting list, and offered admission, if places become available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The granted right to study<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Students admitted to the programme, will gain the right to complete a Master of Science degree in Computer Science in Double Degree Master\u2019s Programme in Computer Science and Engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A new right to study leading to a Master of Science degree in Computer Science in Double Degree MSc Program in Computer Science and Engineering cannot be granted if the applicant already holds a valid right to study in the Double Degree Master\u2019s Programme in Computer Science and Engineering -degree program leading to a Master of Science degree in Computer Science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Student selection procedure<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The admission process for Double Degree Master&#8217;s Programme in Computer Science and Engineering aims to ensure the fair selection of high-quality applicants. Selection is based on the submitted application documents and an evaluation of the extent to which the applicant&#8217;s prior academic studies have provided the knowledge, skills, and competencies required for the Master&#8217;s programme.

UEF accepts the eligible nominated candidates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>UEF-students:<\/strong> Applicants will be ranked according to points they have received during the evaluation process. The best <strong>five (5)<\/strong> applicants are accepted to the program. Others are rejected.

Thus, students whose home university is TUT, will pay tuition fee to TUT, and those whose home university is UEF, will pay tuition fee to UEF. For students whose home university is UEF, the annual tuition fee is EUR 10,000 for non-EU\/EEA nationals. There are no tuition fees for students who are citizens of EU\/EEA countries or Switzerland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All tuition fees, waivers, and scholarships for the 2027\u20132028 academic year are determined by the Vice Rector\u2019s decision, and published on the official UEF website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uef.fi\/en\/tuition-fees-waivers-and-scholarships\">Tuition fees, waivers and scholarships<\/a>. Other National Fees: In addition to tuition fees, degree students are required to pay the Student Union membership fee and the Kela student healthcare fee.
