Spring 2022 UWAS Courses
University-Wide Art Studies (UWAS) offers all Aalto students an opportunity to explore art-based practices and processes beyond disciplinary boundaries. Its course portfolio consists of thematically focused and carefully curated courses where art, design, and architecture facilitate transdisciplinary encounters between students from various backgrounds. Basing its curriculum in experimentation, curiosity, and creativity, UWAS invites both students and teachers to explore the world from multiple angles and learn from each other.

Pilot Funding for work-life relevant education
Teaching Lab offered funding for developing future-proof teaching. Here you'll find examples of funded pilots.
KAPPAS! Assessment of learning outcomes in Finnish higher education (MEC 2018鈥2020)
This Ministry of Education and Culture (MEC) funded project assesses students in universities and universities of applied sciences for their study skills and transferable (workplace) skills. The results of the research may be used in the development of teaching and higher education.
ETHO 2019
The third Art and Design Academies Technical Service Workshop was hosted by Aalto University in Espoo on April 4 and 5. This page includes links to the workshop presentations.
FITech Network University
Study courses organised by Finnish universities of technology free of charge. Courses are aimed at all Finns and permanent residents of Finland.
Easy access in vitro platform
We offer an easy access in vitro platform for testing novel materials for biomedical applications. We have extensive experience in biocompatibility experiments with several cell types. Our facilities at Micronova include biosafety-level 2 cabinet and two incubators dedicated for mammalian cell cultures. We also have several analysis tools such as fully automatized high-end fluorescence microscopy, plate reader and PCR, enabling most common cell culture analysis methods. We are open for new collaboration on materials in biological applications. For more information, please contact Professor Tomi Laurila (tomi.laurila@aalto.fi) or Samuel Rantataro (samuel.rantataro@aalto.fi).

Management of education
Continual development of the quality of teaching and learning is one of the university's key strategic objectives. Aalto University promotes a positive culture of learning. Special attention is paid to supporting the progress of studies and monitoring the study process to ensure learning outcomes.
In-Situ TEM
We are using high-resolution TEM to image nanomaterials under varying electrical biasing, heating, and mechanical nanoprobing conditions.
Multisensory Interconnected Networks
We explore materials and concepts for neuromorphic computing and smart sensing technology.
Artificial Spin Ice
Utilizing frustration by design, we explore the real-time dynamics of magnetic excitations in artificial spin ice and spin glass systems.
Magnetoplasmonics
We use plasmonics to tailor magneto-optical responses, study nanolasing, and control all-optical magnetic switching.
Magnetic Skyrmions
We investigate the formation, annihilation, switching, and motion of magnetic skyrmions and skyrmion lattices.
Magnonics
We study spin waves in YIG-based magnonic structures and work on wave-based neural networks.
Voltage Control of Magnetism
We control magnetism by voltage using strain transfer in multiferroic structures and ion migration in metal/oxide bilayers.
