This webpage provides information to potential clients for this course.
The course is organized by professors Michael Mathioudakis and Kai Puolamäki.
The course is offered during the spring term of the academic year, at the Kumpula campus of the University of Helsinki.
The next offering of the course is scheduled from January to April 2022.
A group of skilled and enthusiastic master's level students working on a project related to your interests. You also get in close contact with potential recruits.
Every project should offer a possibility to work on real data, either provided by the client or available as open data. We also expect a responsible contact person who agrees to meet with the group 2-3 times during the course, to provide comments on their plans and final results.
The course has attracted both companies and public organizations as clients. Indicative examples are shown below.
