Student review [#95829] for BHC in Nursing
at South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences - XAMK

My experience studying Nursing at Xamk, Kotka Campus has been exemplary. I particularly love how practical our programme is. Every semester, we spend a bit of time on campus as well as doing internships in different places like in the hospital, elderly care homes or in outpatient clinics. This allows us to practice the theory we learn in the classroom almost immediately. Similarly we have a mii hospital and a simulation lab where we can come up with different mock scenarios we may experience in the real world and practice them in school.

Other than academics, our campus is very focused on extra curricular activities as well. I’ve participated in many activities, from cooking, a board game club, swimming, foraging and even a language café where we practice our Finnish with native Finnish speaking Students and staff.

The location of our new campus is also ideal being a walking distance from the bus station and pretty much of all Kotka city center.

Our teachers are also great and very approachable as is all of the staff body in Xamk.

I’ve enjoyed my time in Kotka very much most of which I can attribute to my experience studying at Xamk.
