UTU campus
The city campus of UTU provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Turku has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. There is a library on the grounds of the university. There are collected scientific works of graduates and teachers of the university, as well as fiction. Thanks to international exchange programs at UTU, students can communicate with representatives of different countries and nationalities and thus expand their own horizons. And, the university contributes to this by regularly holding joint events for local and foreign students.
