Professor Katri Kauppi receives the prestigious teaching award in 2024.

According to the voters, Katri Kauppi has a very deep knowledge of the subjects she teaches. She is passionate about sustainable development and has done an excellent job of making the topic familiar in her teaching. Her teaching methods work very well and the demands on students' learning and skills are appropriate. She always offers literature recommendations and tips students on topics of interest.
