As this year\u2019s host to the 31st annual EAIE Conference in Helsinki, from 24\u201327 September 2019, Finland shared some of the secrets of its success with 6200 higher education professionals from 95 countries.<\/p>\n

Representing the University of Applied Sciences of the Grisons, Anne-Marie J\u00e4ger and Nicole Mass\u00fcger from the International Office attended the conference, with several goals in mind: campus visits, networking with partner universities, establishing contact with potential new partners, attending professional development seminars and promoting the Swiss higher education system.<\/p>\n

Since 2008, the University of Applied Sciences of the Grisons and Haaga Helia<\/a> have been actively exchanging students. In fact, over 40 Swiss students have studied there, making it our most popular destination. Before the conference, Haaga Helia invited over 100 representatives of their global partner university network to visit their institution. What struck me was the openness and transparency of the campus architecture, which creates pleasant workspaces and an inspiring learning environment (think glass-walled classrooms, chill-out areas for students, cleverly designed meeting areas and quiet zones). We also gained an insight into why Finnish universities are known as leaders in innovation, with a tour of their StartUp School<\/a>, which acts as a university-linked business incubator to support student entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n
