INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH AND TEACHING COOPERATION International cooperation has always been an important part of our work, and we have had international faculty both in research and teaching positions. In addition to international faculty, we consider researcher and teacher mobility to be very important and encourage our doctoral students, as well as postdoctoral researchers, to benefit from international visits. The Entrepreneurship unit has also been an attractive location for visiting researchers.
Ulla Hytti as a Visiting Professor at Nord University Professor Ulla Hytti has been invited as a Visiting Professor (Professor II) at Nord University in Norway from 1 May 2019. Her role as a Visiting Professor is particularly focused on mentoring of early-career and mid-career academics at two campuses (Bodø and Steinkjer). The professorship extends the existing and long-term collaboration between entrepreneurship researchers at the University of Turku and Nord University.
