University of Oulu Bachelor’s/Masters Degree Deadline: 21 Jan 2027 (annual) Study in: Finland Course starts Autumn 2027 Brief description: The University of Oulu in Finland gives partial Tuition Fee Waiver Scholarships to fee-paying international students on its English-taught Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes. The waivers start from the second year of study and depend on study progress; there are no university scholarships for the first year, although some programmes offer an Early Bird discount. The university does not offer scholarships that cover 100% of the tuition fee. Host Institution(s): University of Oulu, Finland Level/Field of study: English-taught Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes starting in autumn 2027. Master’s programmes with a waiver include architecture; biomedical engineering; chemistry of sustainable processes and materials; computer science and engineering; electronics; environmental engineering; finance, accounting, marketing and international business; geosciences and mining engineering; product innovation; software engineering and information systems; wireless communications engineering; and education and learning technology. Bachelor’s programmes with a waiver are computer science and engineering, software engineering and information systems, electronics and communications, and international business management. Number of Awards: Not limited: every continuing fee-paying student on an eligible programme who meets the study progress requirement can receive the waiver. Target group: Students who are not citizens of an EU/EEA country or Switzerland and who do not hold a Finnish residence permit that exempts them from tuition fees. Scholarship value/inclusions: A partial waiver of the annual tuition fee from the second year onwards, of 10% to 40% depending on the programme.
