STUDYING
Academic Calendar
At TUT, the academic year is divided into two semesters, the autumn
semester and the spring semester. There are four teaching periods during
an academic year and there is an examination week at the end of each
period. The periods 1-2 take place in the autumn semester and the periods
3-4 in the spring semester. The autumn semester begins in late August
and ends at the end of December. The spring semester starts in early
January and ends in mid-May. During the summer period (except for the
month of July) some courses are lectured (mainly in Finnish) and there are
some possibilities to take examinations and do research work at the
departments.
Officially, the autumn semester begins on 1 August and ends on 31
December. The spring semester begins on 1 January and ends on 31 July.
You can check the schedule for each academic year in the student portal
POP www.tut.fi/pop > Study Info > Academic Calendar.
Enrolment
All students studying at TUT are required to enrol for each academic year
either as attending or absent. Enrolment is important since students who
have not enrolled by the given deadline will forfeit their right to study at
TUT.
Enrolment is usually done for an academic year at a time. The deadline for
enrolment for the whole academic year in the academic year 2015-2016 is
2 September 2015. To enrol as attending, new students have to fill in the
Enrolment Form, return it to the International Office and pay the Student
Union membership fee of 111,00 euros for the academic year 2015-2016
(or 55,50 euros for a semester). The Student Union membership fee is
compulsory for all attending students. The Student Union membership fee
is not a tuition fee and it entitles students to many benefits including the
use of the services of Finnish Student Health Service (FSHS, in Finnish
YTHS).
If a student enrols as absent, the student union membership fee is not
required. An absent student cannot study or participate in exams. Students
who accepted their study places in autumn 2014 or earlier may enrol as
absent for a maximum of four semesters during their studies. Those
students who accepted their study places in or after autumn 2015 may
enrol as absent for a maximum of two semesters. For students who have
been admitted in 2015 or later, absence during the first year of studies is
only possible if it results from documented maternal leave, long-term
illness or compulsory Finnish military service.
Students are required to enroll either as attending or absent at the
University. If a student fails to enroll by the given deadline he/she will lose
the study right and will be removed from the TUT study register. Failing to
enroll will be counted to the time limit for degree completion. The student
will be considered absent. Absences that exceed the maximum time limit
will reduce the time left for degree completion. The study right can be
regained by applying for re-enrolment from the University. Students
applying for re-enrolment are charged a re-enrolment fee of 35 euros.
POP Portal
The POP portal (www.tut.fi/pop) is the personalised student portal for TUT
students. You can use the POP portal after having received your TUT user
account. The POP portal is the toolbox and information center for your
studies and student life.
You will find the following sections in the POP portal:
MAIN PAGE: You can read news and announcements as well as your own
reminders and to-do lists. There is also a calendar which includes your
own notes, your course timetable and common activities.
STUDIES: You can, for example, see the course catalogue, see your
course results and sign up for courses and exams.
STUDY INFO: You can find information concerning study practicalities,
planning of your studies, graduation, regulations.
DOCTORAL STUDIES: You can find information on PhD studies at TUT.
MY PROFILE: You can update your personal information here. You can
also enrol for a new academic year and pay the Student Union
membership fee.
PEOPLE SEARCH: You can search for students’ and personnel’s contact
information and add them in your contacts.
Personal Study Plan (PSP)
Course Timetables
All students are required to prepare a personal study plan which will be
accepted by the student’s home Faculty. The personal study plan (in
Finnish HOPS) is made according to the degree programmes’ instructions
with the online PSP tool which can be found from the POP portal. Students
need to use their TUT user account to logon to PSP. More information
about PSP (HOPS) is available in the POP portal.
Timetables for the first year of studies in the international Master’s degree
programmes are available in the POP portal Study info > Planning your
studies > Timetable templates. By signing up for courses in the POP portal
you will get the detailed timetable for each course. You can also see your
timetables in your calendar in the POP portal.
How to Sign up for Courses
Methods of Instruction
Course requirements may vary depending on the course. Some courses
are lecture-based and there is an examination at the end of the course. In
addition to lectures, a course may include problem-solving exercises
(laskuharjoitus), individual or group design work (suunnitteluharjoitus) or
laboratory work (laboratorioharjoitus).
Therefore it is important that you attend the opening lectures to find out
details about course arrangements and requirements for completing the
course (obligatory exercises, assignments, exact timetable, exams and
other details).
All students need to sign up for courses in the personalised student portal
POP (www.tut.fi/pop > In English > Studies > Study Guide and Sign-up).
Please note that you will need your TUT user account to use the POP
portal. Sign-up for courses in the POP portal will close two weeks prior to
the beginning of each teaching period. Students will be given instructions
on how to sign up for courses during the orientation. In case you have
problems with the course sign-up, please contact the course lecturer.
Course Grading
Lectures at TUT usually start quarter past the hour and last for 45 minutes.
Between lectures, there is a 15-minute-break although it is common to skip
it in 2-hour lectures.
Courses will be graded within one month of the date of completing the
course. You can view your grades in the POP portal at www.tut.fi/pop >
Studies > My study records.
If you suspect a mistake in your grading, you can ask for rectification either
orally or in writing from the lecturer who graded the exam. More
information can be found in the Degree Regulations.
E-learning Platforms
Course Feedback
There are different e-learning platforms in use at TUT. The most commonly
used are Moodle, Idle and A&O. More information about the possible use
of an e-learning platform during a course is usually given in the first
lecture.
Courses
The course descriptions are available in the online course catalogue. A link
to the course catalogue (for the courses available in English) can be found
in the POP portal at
www.tut.fi/pop > In English > Studies > Study Guide and Sign-up
Course Codes
Course codes are marked before the name of the course (e.g., TIE-02206
Basic course on programming). If the code ends with the number 0-5, it
means that the course is taught in Finnish. If the code ends with the
number 6, 7, 8 or 9, it means that the course is taught in English.
TUT aims at continuous development of teaching. Feedback is collected
after every course. Students submit feedback on courses through the
Kaiku system that they access via POP > Studies > Studies. The credits
that a student earns for completing a course will be entered into the
student’s academic records only after the student has submitted feedback
through the Kaiku course feedback system.
You can send feedback on the course implementation rounds that you
have signed up for. Kaiku offers students a direct avenue for providing
feedback on both individual courses and course offerings in the
departments. Teachers are also obligated to respond to the feedback they
receive from students. This encourages open dialogue and more active
interaction between teachers and students. For more information, please
go to POP > Study Info > Quality of education > Course feedback.
Grading and Credit System at Tampere University of
Technology
ECTS Grade Definitions
The European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) is based on the student
workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme, objectives
preferably specified in terms of learning outcomes and competences to be
acquired. One TUT credit equals one ECTS credit.
Studies at TUT are evaluated on the scale excellent (5), very good (4),
good (3), very satisfactory (2) and satisfactory or approved (1) and fail (0).
For special reasons studies may be evaluated on a pass/fail basis.
One credit at TUT refers to an input of approximately 27 hours of work
which consists of lecture hours, exercises and other forms of instruction as
well as independent work. Full course load for the whole academic year is
approximately 60 credits and for one semester approximately 30 credits.
Institutional and ECTS evaluation systems:
Registration of Grades and Transcript of Records
All grades will be entered in the TUT study register. Official transcripts (that
bear the university stamp) either in English or Finnish can be obtained at
the Student Affairs office. If needed, you can also get a confirmation of
your attendance, i.e. a certificate of enrolment. The certificate of enrolment
is also available in two languages.
Examinations (tentti)
There are four examination periods during the academic year. A possibility
to take the exam of a certain course will be arranged at least three times.
Students are entitled to attempt an exam forming a part of the same
course no more than three times, regardless of whether earlier attempts
were passes or fails. The highest grade will be considered when giving the
overall grade for the course.
Signing up for the Exams
You are required to sign up for exams through the POP portal at least
seven (7) days beforehand. You cannot participate in exams without a
sign-up. Only the answer papers of those students who have signed up for
the examination will be forwarded to the lecturer for grading. In problem
situations, you need to contact the Faculty arranging the exam. Please see
the contact persons and more information at www.tut.fi/pop > Study info >
Enrolment and sign-ups > Sign up for exams.
answers.
Marking of the Exams
The lecturer in charge of the course is required to forward the results to the
study register within one month of the date of the exam. Students have a
right to get feedback about their exam answers from the lecturer in charge.
Cheating
If you cannot attend an exam you have signed up for, please remember to
cancel your sign-up in time. You will be considered to have taken the exam
if you do not cancel your sign-up at least one day before the exam. Bear in
mind that if you neglect to cancel your exam sign-up, it counts as one
opportunity to take the exam.
Cheating in examinations is strictly forbidden! If an invigilator suspects
cheating s/he may issue the student with a verbal warning which will be
entered on the student’s answer paper for the information of the lecturer.
An examination paper will be disqualified if a student has acted dishonestly
in the examination. Cheating may even result in losing one’s study right.
For more information on regulations on examinations please see
www.tut.fi/pop > Study Info > Regulations > Exam regulations.
Duration of the Exams
Plagiarism
Exams usually last for three hours and start exactly on the hour, not
quarter past. During the first 30 minutes, you are not permitted to leave the
room.
Mentioning the original source of information and ideas for example in
one’s essays, assignments, exercises and thesis is a requirement for all.
Plagiarism is strictly forbidden and is a punishable act! When plagiarism is
discovered, the work (e.g. essay, assignment) itself will be disqualified and
the whole course can be disqualified. Plagiarism may even result in losing
one’s study right. When using some else’s work as a source you should
always make a quotation. Each department at TUT has its own instructions
on how to make quotations. Thus, you should ask your department at TUT
for advice to avoid any misunderstandings.
Cancelling Your Sign-up for an Exam
In the Examination
Students may only take writing utensils (pencils, eraser, ruler, pencil
sharpener) and photo identification to their desk in the examination room.
In many exams, a calculator is also required. In general, the calculator may
not be programmable. Notification of exceptions to this rule will be given
separately. Personal belongings such as bags, jackets, mobile phones
(remember to switch it off!) must be left by the wall of the examination
room.
When you are handed an exam paper and the answer papers, make sure
that the exam paper is the right one as there may be several different
exams at the same time in the same lecture room. You will need to write
your name and student number on every answer paper. Papers without
names will not be marked. If other materials are permitted in the exam, this
will be announced separately.
You will be asked to present a proof of identity (a student card or a pictorial
identity card) when handing in your answer papers. The basic rule is that
nothing may be taken out of the examination room which was not brought
in. You will need to hand in your answer papers even if they contain no
Finnish Language Courses
Adapting to Finnish society and everyday life will be much easier and more
fun if you are prepared to learn some Finnish. Also it is very important to
know some Finnish if you are willing to work in Finland at some point.
International students take at least one Finnish language course at the
TUT Language Centre (Konetalo building, 2nd floor) as a part of their
degree programme. The TUT Language Centre offers a wide variety of
Finnish language courses. Please contact the Language Centre for more
information on courses in the Finnish language.
You can learn some Finnish also outside the Finnish courses with the help
of the following self-study materials on the Internet:
Puhutaan Suomea Magazine: http://www.learn-finnish.net/

http://www.livetampere.fi/living/finnish-language-courses/on-internet/
Studies in Other Finnish Universities
In most programmes, it is possible to include one minor (approx. 25
credits) taken in some other Finnish university. The studies must form a
module which can be accepted as a part of student’s personal study plan
(PSP). Final acceptance regarding studies made outside TUT is made by
the Head of the Degree Programme. The JOO-flexible study right
agreement between the Finnish Universities provides students with a
possibility to study courses in some other Finnish University which will be
later included into the Degree that is to be completed at TUT.
Time Limits for Master’s Degree Completion
The Finnish Universities Act (558/2009 and its amendments) imposes time
limits for completing the lower university degree (Bachelor of Science in
Technology) and the higher university degree (Master of Science in
Technology/Architecture). The time limits apply to students who accepted
their place at the University in or after autumn 2005. The time limits do not
apply to students who accepted their place before 1 August 2005.
Students must monitor their progress to ensure that they graduate within
the maximum time limits.
The normative time for completing a Master's degree is two years.
Education at the University must be arranged so as to ensure that students
can complete their degrees within this deadline. If a student already holds
a Bachelor's degree and is admitted to the University to directly pursue the
degree of Master of Science in Technology/Architecture, his/her normative
time-to-degree is two years. However, these students have four years to
complete their degrees without applying for an extension.
For those students who accepted their place at the University in autumn
2015 or later, an absence of no more than two semesters will not count
toward the time-to-degree, if the student has enrolled as absent. Students
can enrol as absent for two semesters without giving a specific reason.
Absence during the first year of studies is only possible if it results from
documented maternal leave, long-term illness or compulsory Finnish
military service. Absence during the first year of studies will always cover
the whole academic year. An absence that exceeds two semesters is
counted toward the student's time-to-degree. This does not, however,
apply to absences resulting from documented maternal leave or
compulsory Finnish military service. Students must enrol as absent and
present a certificate (for example a military passport, child's birth
certificate, decision by the Finnish Social Insurance Institution KELA) if
they are on leave due to the above reasons. The certificate of absence is
submitted to TUT’s Student Affairs Office.
For those students who accepted their place at the University in autumn
2014 or earlier, an absence of no more than four semesters will not count
toward the time-to-degree, if the student has enrolled as absent. Students
can enrol as absent for four semesters without giving a specific reason. An
absence that exceeds four semesters is counted toward the student's timeto-degree. This does not, however, apply to absences prescribed by law,
such as Finnish military service, voluntary military service or maternity,
paternity or parental leave. Students must enrol as absent and present a
certificate (for example, a military passport, child's birth certificate, decision
by the Finnish Social Insurance Institution KELA), if they are on leave due
to the above reasons. The certificate of absence is submitted to TUT’s
Student Services.
Students are required to enrol either as attending or absent at the
University. If a student fails to enrol, he/she will be considered absent.
Absences that exceed the maximum time limit will reduce the time left for
degree completion.
Graduation
After the student has completed all the required studies including the
Master's thesis, s/he can submit an application for the degree certificate
together with the application to have the thesis evaluated by the Faculty
Council. The application for degree certificate and the required
attachments must be delivered to the Faculty Office at least 14 days before
the meeting of the Faculty Council.
The official day of graduation is the day when the dean approves the
degree. Degree certificates are handed out by the President of the
University at a graduation ceremony. Graduation ceremonies are arranged
every month except for the month of July.
Regulations
Teaching in universities in Finland is governed by laws (Universities Act
558/2009, Government Decree on University Degrees 794/2004 and Act
on the Knowledge of Languages Required of Personnel in Public Bodies
(424/2003)). Teaching and studying at TUT are also governed with some
TUT regulations. The most important of these are the Degree Regulations
and Exam Regulations which define TUT’s policies concerning degree
studies. You will find the up-to-date Degree Regulations and Exam
Regulations in POP: www.tut.fi/pop > Study Info > Regulations.

Additional Information
This study module is one of the Major options for the Finnish degree
students in Industrial Engineering and Management; and this is the Major
for the international degree students in Industrial Engineering and
Management. The Major is conducted entirely in English.
Mathematics is mainly mathematics needed in modelling algorithmics, data
communication, and symbolical calculation. Applications of the old areas of
number theory, logic and algebra will be included, too. The focus area
aims at a comprehensive overview. By proper choice of courses any one
of these areas may be emphasized. Mathematical and Semantic
Modelling, together with various computational methods (e.g. simulation,
optimization and visualization) has a central role in the investigation of
many fields of science, and also in high-tech product development. The
goal of modelling is to build a sufficiently detailed mathematical model, the
solution of which then usually requires heavy numerical computation.
Studies in this focus area provide the student with a broad mathematical
know-how for modelling incoming multi-discipline phenomena, and
developing advanced solution methods.

Person Responsible: Seppo Pohjolainen, Martti Lehto
Learning Outcomes
- The extended advanced study module in Mathematics is intended to give
the student an exceptionally solid knowledge of the foundations of
mathematics for research, post-graduate studies and other further training,
and especially applications in industry and elsewhere. The studies
therefore should be focused on at least two of the main three areas:
Analysis, Discrete Mathematics, and Mathematical and Semantic
Modelling. Studies in the Analysis focus area mainly deal with functional
analysis and its applications, and measure and integration theory. This
area lends itself nicely to mathematics itself and the more theoretical
engineering sciences. The main topics then are measure and integration,
functional analysis and its applications, and geometric algebra. Discrete
Optional Compulsory Courses
Each of the three focus areas has its own compulsory course and a
recommended set of choices for the complementary courses which are
listed in a separate table. For the extended study module the compulsory
courses of at least two of the focus areas should be chosen.

Additional Information
Signal processing covers the analysis, filtering and interpretation of various
types of signals, including images and video. Signal processing methods
are often embedded in devices and some software systems. It is advisable
to obtain good programming skills in order to be able to apply signal
processing methods to such systems. Co-operation with other developers
requires also communication, presentation and negotiation skills, as well
as project management and leadership skills. The industry is interested in

Additional Information
In general, Smart Grid is an enabler of energy-efficient and
environmentally friendly energy market and critical infrastructure for
society. The smart solutions will connect information technology and
communication technology to the electricity infrastructure. The major
studies provide thorough knowledge of Smart Grids, addressing in-depth
some of the underlying areas such as active network management, the
integration of distributed energy resources and the enabling FACTS
technology. Power electronics plays a key role in the integration of the socalled distributed energy resources into the smart grid - distributed
renewable sources of generation such as solar and hydrogen cells, wind
turbines, controllable loads and electric vehicles. Distribution automation
and ICT solutions for active network management provide the foundation
for the overall target of smart grids to enable energy-efficient and
environmentally friendly energy markets aiming at a secure infrastructure
for the benefit of society. Smart Grid major is also available for a student of
Finnish Master program or from other Finnish universities having suitable
courses in Bachelor Degree studies. Suitable major studies in Bachelor
level at TUT’s Electrical Engineering degree program are e.g. Power
Engineering, Renewable Energy Technologies or Power Electronics. In the
