Finland as a study destination
Finland is a booming country that is consistently ranked among the top ten in the world in terms of the standard of living, economic stability, and education.
Finland is a country of innovation and technology and has continuously topped related global indices. Finnish companies highly value innovation designed to solve problems in a pragmatic and surprising way.
Finland is a small country on the global scale. Finland's population, 5 million, makes up barely 0.07 per cent of the world's population and its land area as much of the world's total area. However, even a small country can leap to the top of the world, and this is what Finland has done: in international comparisons, Finland is often among the top nations. Finland is:
- the happiest country;
- the top country in education according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD);
- the most advanced country in the EU in utilisation of digitalisation;
- the second largest in the EU in the share of renewable energy in the country's total energy consumption;
- the fourth most gender equal country;
