Quality is the result of a goal-oriented working culture | PEPPI TAALAS

Our quality promise – teaching and teachers are respected and quality is kept high – is defined in the strategy. This means that a degree certificate from the University of Jyväskylä is a quality promise. We ensure that our graduates are individually strong and convincing experts.

The quality promise underlines the importance of your own actions. It may be difficult to detect learning, but understanding its value generates useful momentum. Competence comes from trust in your skills and judgement. Meaningful and goal-oriented work is also a resource that increases wellbeing.

The quality promise is also a societal commitment. Our research is trusted and valued. We make the circle of development concrete. This way we can ensure that completed research projects are put into practice so that they benefit society and build a foundation for new research.
