How to apply

Apply for Open University studies by using the following links:

BBT.MND.712 Bio-Optoelectronic Instrumentation, lectures, Tampere

You can find a link to the Open University Admissions service and application instructions on the Applying to Open University studies page.

Some of the studies require prior studies. For example, studying intermediate studies may require some completed basic studies. These are described on the Information about studies tab of the study unit under prior requirements.

When you have been admitted to the studies, you must enrol separately via the Sisu information system for the implementation of the unit of study and, for example if set, for a practise group of your choice. You will receive instructions on how to do this by e-mail after you have confirmed your acceptance of the study place by paying the required fee.
