3.5 Laurea’s Educational Services and Other Services
The aim of our Educational Services is to support the integration of Laurea Polytechnic’s three main areas of operation. The integrated services cover the following areas: pedagogy, regional development, research and development, administration, reception, advice, guidance and event management.
Integrated educational services include the financial aid committee, information service, e-services and continuous improvement of the services. Service Manager Teija Laamanen, tel. +358 205 787 532, teija.laamanen@laurea.fi is in charge of the development of educational services.
Each institute has an educational service point that offers its services to students, staff and Laurea’s partners. The Office will provide you with information on application times, result registers, study practices and social issues. Students will find information also at www.laurea.fi and on the Laurea Intranet Forum as well as on the notice boards and info-TV of each institute.

Library and Information Services are provided at each of the Polytechnic’s Institutes, for detailed information see the Student Guide 2004-2005 or www.laurea.fi. The numerous public libraries are open mainly Mon-Fri 10-20 and Sat 10-15, providing general literature, newspapers, periodicals, music and the possibility to use the Internet. Most services are free of charge.
Information about social benefits (student financial aid, insurance, meal subsides, health care) in the Student Guide 2004-2005 or www.laurea.fi. All Laurea students are insured under legally required accident insurance from If. The insurance covers accidents that take place in practical studies and unpaid internships/placements carried out in accordance with the curriculum in Finland. The insurance is valid during the activity according to the working plan and related direct traveling. The insurance does not cover sickness or accidents that take place in leisure time, which is why we strongly recommend an additional, optional travel insurance that will cover accidents that take place during leisure time as well as sickness during the stay in Finland. Citizens of the EU and EEA countries are covered by the National Health Insurance Plan administrated by the Social Insurance Institution. Students are advised to bring E128-forms from their home country in order to ensure the additional benefits from National Health Care Services.
Accommodation
Laurea International Coordinators in cooperation with the Foundation for Student Housing in the Helsinki Region (HOAS) arrange housing for all exchange students and on special arrangement for some foreign degree students. The housing available through the HOAS consists of a single room in a student flat with shared kitchen and bathroom facilities. Some Institutes have student dormitories of their own.
The student flats are situated all around the metropolitan area. Neither rooms nor flats are normally equipped with kitchenware or linen. The students are requested to bring their own linen (sheets, towels).
The monthly rent for a room in student housing varies between 270 € and 388 € per month.
In Hyvinkää, Järvenpää, Kerava, Lohja and Porvoo student accommodation is offered by different companies or institutions. International Coordinators of Laurea Institutes in cooperation with the companies and institutions arrange housing for all exchange students.
