Voluntary work accepted as a study attainment is work related to your field of study that supports the acquisition of skills in the studies required in your degree programme. The work may involve participation in activities run by municipalities, NGOs etc. If the voluntary work is carried out in a multicultural environment, it may be used as a study attainment in the internationalisation module.

The student finds out about volunteering opportunities independently. The work should be first agreed with the faculty and then with the employer.

The study attainment requires participation in volunteer work and the writing of a report of 2-4 pages.
