Tampere University and Tampere University of Applied Sciences constitute the Tampere university community. Together we are building a new model for higher education and research in Finland.

Our community was created at the beginning of 2019, when the University of Tampere and Tampere University of Technology were merged establishing the new foundation-based Tampere University that maintains close ties with Tampere University of Applied Sciences.

Our new community brings together research and education, for example, in the fields of economics, technology, health and society.

Tampere University including Tampere University Hospital and Tampere University of Applied Sciences have joined FinELib consortium’s agreement with IEEE. The agreement offers our researchers an opportunity to publish a limited amount of open access articles with a CC BY license for free in IEEE hybrid and fully open access journals annually.
