The Media and Arts programme’s application period’s 2017 results (part 1/2)

The application period to TAMK’s Media and Arts programme and its study paths Interactive Media, Music Production and Fine Art ended on 25.1.2017. This time, the number of first-choice applicants was 334, which was a really good result in the new application system.

At the moment, our teachers are assessing the applicants' pre-tasks and portfolios. As a result for assessments we will invite about 100 applicants in total to an online interview - no more travelling to exams!. Invitation letters to online interviews will be sent in mid-February 2017. The online interviews will be organized 20.-23.2.2017.

The next application period will be next year, but it's good to start practicing your skills and expanding your portfolio already now in order to be ready for the next year's application. For motivation and more information, please check these student stories about studying in TAMK's Media and programme and it's study paths.

More stories will be published from each study path in future to give you a good insight to our studies. Hopefully these will also give an extra motivation to all who will be invited to online interviews and also for those who may not be invited to interviews this year. Stay tuned to follow latest news and our students’ stories!

If the hunters succeed in killing Sarvvis, the world will die. In the game, a young Sámi child, Áilu, gets mixed up with this endless hunt and accidentally initiates the end of the world.“ Students have been working hard over the summer with various projects and internships.

(Yes, the city, not the Finnish hardware and various items store by the same name.) We were there by the generous invitation of the University of Tampere, Centre for Practice as Research inTheatre . Thank you also for being such nice travel companions, Riku Roihankorpi and Maria Salomaa! What a pity that Jaakko Lenni-Taattola was not able to join us, due to attending another conference.
