Discussion on curricula

SAMK has an education committee which confirms all our curricula. It is a part of the quality assurance system/process, and forms a common understanding of curricula at SAMK. The committee constists of seven members, a chair and a secretary. There are two members from each faculty, and one from the student union. The committee discusses the new and updated curricula with the degree programme coordinators.

On Monday the Bachelor's Degree curricula confirmed were the rehabilitation counselling and planning (in which tuition is in Finnish), and the physiotherapy (in English). The first time ever we were asked if we'll discuss in Finnish or in English.

A good question. And a good sign, too. The everyday life at SAMK has become more and more bilingual. There are many things which shouldn't and can't be taken for granted anymore. And that's sometimes a very good thing.

The next degree programme to be discussed is our brand new in English degree programme Innovative Business Process. Innovative as a word promises an interesting discussion. This time presumably still in Finnish, though.
