Fundamentals of Business

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE STUDY PROGRAMS

CHOOSING THE BSC STUDY PROGRAM

The BSc Degree students will choose their BSc study program during the second period of spring semester in their first year of studies. This does not apply to the students admitted on the basis of the HSE Open University studies.

For non-Finnish speaking students there are two BSc study program options: Business Technology and Finance in the Accounting, Finance and Business Law Degree Program. The selection to the study programs is based in main cases on the student's grades and credits in the courses of the Fundamentals of Business Knowledge that are taught during the first year except for Professional Skills Portfolio (48 credits) and language studies (max 12 ECTS credits to be taken into account). Other credits will not be taken into account.

In the ranking of the students there will be used the following formula:

opi = ECTS credits from course in Fundamentals of Business Knowledge
pi = the grade from course in Fundamentals of Business Knowledge
n = number of courses taken in Fundamentals of Business Knowledge
opj = ECTS credits from language course j
pj = grade from language course j
m = number of language courses taken

For example:

The student has completed all 8 courses of the Fundamentals of Business Studies during the first year of studies and the course of English Business Communication of 6 credits all with the grade of 60.
The student will get 48 x (120/100) + 6 x (120/100) = 49,2 + 7,2 = 56,4.
