History

Hanken School of Economics, one of the oldest business schools in the Nordic countries, was established more than one hundred years ago. Today, Hanken is the only stand-alone business school in Finland. 

Education

We offer academic programmes on all levels (BSc, MSc and PhD) at two locations, in Helsinki and Vaasa.

Hanken is the first university in Finland to introduce a mandatory semester abroad as an integrated part of the curriculum. The students are thus offered a unique opportunity to create their own international networks for life through an exchange or internship period abroad. These lifelong networks are created both internationally and at Hanken. They permeate the studies and play an important role in the excellent placement of our alumni on the international job market.

Hanken School of Economics' master's programme is ranked 57th in this year's edition of the Financial Times Masters in Management ranking. The result positions Hanken as one of the three highest ranked business schools in the Nordic region. The Financial Times annually ranks the best master’s programmes world-wide.

Research

Research at Hanken is carried out within all departments, with a special focus on four selected areas of strength. Many of our researchers are at the absolute forefront of their field. Our cooperation with the corporate world is reflected in joint research projects, in active interaction through our partner programme as well as the generous support we receive in our fundraising.

Challenging Yet Rewarding Four Years

My journey at the University of Digital Economy and Agrotechnologies began in September 2022, when I enrolled in the Finance and Financial Technologies program. Over the past four years, I have had the opportunity to immerse myself in a curriculum that spans traditional finance fundamentals alongside emerging technological innovations. The program structure allowed me to build a strong theoretical base through courses in microeconomics, corporate finance, and financial management, while simultaneously exploring contemporary topics such as blockchain applications, data analytics, and fintech innovations.What made my experience particularly valuable was the ability to complement classroom learning with real-world application. Throughout my studies, I worked in various capacities - from assisting with university admissions processes to serving as a trainee in the Business Faculty. One of the most significant experiences was my involvement with the USAID-funded Youth Employment Skills Activity, where I worked as a consultant helping develop educational materials. These practical engagements helped me understand how theoretical concepts translate into actual business operations. Several aspects of my university experience stood out as particularly beneficial. First, the curriculum design struck an effective balance between foundational knowledge and specialized expertise. Early courses established solid grounding in economic theory and quantitative methods, which proved essential when tackling more complex subjects later. The progression felt natural and well-structured.The faculty's commitment to staying current with industry developments was evident throughout my studies. Professors regularly incorporated case studies from recent market events and encouraged us to analyze real-world financial situations. This approach made abstract concepts more tangible and relevant. I particularly valued courses on financial technologies and blockchain, which are rapidly reshaping the finance industry but often overlooked in traditional curricula.Another highlight was the research culture within the program. Faculty members actively encouraged student participation in academic conferences and publications. This support enabled me to contribute to several research papers published in international journals, covering topics from ESG investing to supply chain risk management. These research experiences taught me critical thinking and analytical skills that extend well beyond finance.The practical opportunities available through the university were instrumental in my professional development. My internship at Agrobank's main office exposed me to banking operations firsthand, while my earlier position at O'zagrosug'urta Insurance Company introduced me to the insurance sector. Each experience built upon the previous one, creating a comprehensive understanding of financial services.Finally, the collaborative environment among students fostered meaningful peer learning. Study groups and project teams allowed us to learn from each other's perspectives and approaches, which often proved as valuable as formal instruction. Despite the many strengths of the program, several areas would benefit from enhancement. The technology infrastructure, while functional, sometimes struggles to keep pace with the curriculum's digital focus. Computer labs occasionally have outdated software versions, which can create a gap between what we learn theoretically and the tools currently used in industry. Regular updates to both hardware and software would better prepare students for the technological environments they'll encounter professionally. The library's digital resources, though adequate, could be expanded. Access to more international academic databases and industry reports would support deeper research and expose students to a broader range of perspectives. Many cutting-edge finance journals remain inaccessible, limiting our ability to engage with the latest scholarship. International dimensions of the program could be strengthened as well. While we study international finance conceptually, opportunities for direct international exposure through exchange programs or partnerships with foreign institutions are limited. Such experiences would provide valuable cross-cultural competencies and global perspectives increasingly essential in today's interconnected financial markets. The connection between the university and the broader financial industry could be deepened. More regular guest lectures from industry professionals, company visits, and formal mentorship programs would help students better understand career pathways and industry expectations. Currently, such interactions happen somewhat sporadically and depend largely on individual faculty initiative. Lastly, while English language courses are included in the curriculum, greater integration of English across specialized finance subjects would better prepare graduates for international opportunities. Many global finance careers require strong English proficiency in technical contexts, not just conversational ability. Reflecting on my four years in the program, I can say that my university experience has been genuinely formative. The education I received goes beyond technical knowledge of financial instruments or markets - it has shaped how I think about problems, analyze information, and approach challenges. The academic rigor of the program pushed me to develop disciplined study habits and analytical capabilities. Maintaining a strong GPA while balancing multiple extracurricular commitments required effective time management and prioritization skills that will serve me throughout my career. The challenging coursework taught me perseverance and the value of sustained effort. What distinguishes this program, in my view, is its commitment to relevance. Rather than teaching finance as a static body of knowledge, the curriculum acknowledges the field's rapid evolution and prepares students to adapt accordingly. The emphasis on emerging technologies and contemporary issues ensures that graduates enter the workforce with current, applicable skills rather than outdated methods. The practical dimensions of my education proved equally important. Working alongside the USAID project gave me insight into how educational programs are designed and implemented. My banking internship revealed the operational realities behind financial theories. These experiences grounded my academic learning in practical context, making me a more well-rounded professional. Perhaps most importantly, my time at the university helped me develop professional networks and relationships that extend beyond graduation. Connections with faculty, fellow students, and professionals I met through internships form a network I can draw upon throughout my career. The research opportunities available through the program deserve special mention. Publishing academic work while still an undergraduate taught me valuable skills in scholarly writing, critical analysis, and presenting complex ideas clearly. These capabilities transcend finance and will benefit me in any professional context requiring clear communication and rigorous thinking. Of course, no educational experience is perfect, and I've noted areas where improvements would enhance future students' experiences. However, these limitations don't diminish the overall value of what the program offers. The foundation in both traditional and modern finance, combined with practical application opportunities and research experience, has prepared me well for the next phase of my career. For prospective students considering this program, I would emphasize that you'll get out of it what you put in. The opportunities are there - for learning, for practical experience, for research, for professional development - but they require active engagement and initiative. Those willing to fully invest themselves in the experience will find it genuinely rewarding and will leave well-prepared for careers in an evolving financial landscape. Looking ahead, I feel confident in my ability to contribute meaningfully to the finance sector, whether in traditional banking, fintech innovation, or financial regulation. That confidence stems directly from the comprehensive, forward-looking education I received at the University of Digital Economy and Agrotechnologies.

A unique experience

Going to university is a unique experience that is just not about studying and getting a degree. A big part of university life is also participating in extracurricular activities and getting involved in student organizations and clubs. It's an opportunity to meet new people, explore one's interests and passions, and build a lasting community with like-minded people. One of the great benefits of going to Hanken School of Economics is that there are so many different clubs and organizations to get involved in. Whether you're interested i.e. in sports, music, startups, or something else, there's bound to be a club for you. These clubs give students the opportunity to get involved outside the classroom, to meet like-minded people, and to develop skills and experiences relevant to their careers and personal lives.
