Kandidaatin tutkinnon kypsyysnäyte

Description

The maturity test is a demonstration of a student’s familiarity with the subject matter of the thesis written for the degree, as well as of command of academic writing style. At the same time, students who have completed their school education in Finnish or Swedish demonstrate their excellent language skills in the language of their school education.

Students who have completed their school education in a language other than Finnish or Swedish can complete their maturity test in Finnish or Swedish, if they have sufficient skills in these languages, or in English.

The content of the maturity test is assessed by a representative of the discipline, and the language is assessed by a reviser approved by the Centre for Multilingual Academic Communication. For students who complete their maturity test in a language other than their language of school education or mother tongue, familiarity with the subject of the thesis and command of academic writing style are emphasised in assessment.

  • demonstrates familiarity with the subject of the thesis
  • demonstrates proficiency in his/her language of school education

Additional information
