The Baltic Sea as a topic will be included into the curriculum of the degree programs as part of the orientation and managing studies (ethics and sustainability approach). Especially the study program called Environmental Engineering will be involved in this project. This will be dealt with in various learning projects.
Metropolia is committed to organize small scale student happenings, events or seminars around the theme to increase the awareness of the about the Baltic Sea( eg. student concert, Baltic sea and logistics).
