Hi everyone! It's Chiara, I'm from Italy and I study english and russian language and literature. I chose University of Helsinky for my Erasmus but I am a bit concerned about the possibility to attend courses in English, who can I talk to about this?

Michalina Furmaniak Geschreven 7 jaar geleden

Hello,

What makes you concerned about that ? As far as I know, there are some courses on american literature for sure, and then, as I pressume, british literature as well. :) have you registered on Mobility Online already ?

Chiara Sollazzo Geschreven 7 jaar geleden

Hello, 

I haven't registered yet to the Mobility, should I? What I need to know is that there is the possibility to attend courses in English, suited for my program, because I don't speak Finnish.

The courses are English language and as well literature and russian or filology

Hi !

I received an email from Helsinki University with the instructions as to where to log in and where i can find subjects to choose from. They told me set up an account on Mobility Online. On Mobility Online there were instructions here to look for subjects, here : https://weboodi.oulu.fi/oodi/frame.jsp?Kieli=6

But still, i think the best you can do is to ask your Erasmus supervisor :)
