The Aalto University and the University of Helsinki have signed a cross-institutional studies agreement (鈥淨uantEd agreement鈥) that allows students of selected degree programmes to sign-up for quantum-related courses organized by the other institution. The aim of the agreement is to broaden the selection of quantum-related studies available to students and enhance student mobility between the two institutions.
The agreement concerns Aalto University students of the following Master鈥檚 programmes
- Master鈥檚 Programme in Automation and Electrical Engineering,
- Master鈥檚 Programme in Electronics and Nanotechnology,
- Master鈥檚 Programme in Engineering Physics,
- Master鈥檚 Programme in Mathematics and Operations Research,
and doctoral students in the fields of
- Engineering Physics,
- Photonics and Nanotechnology,
- Radio Science and Engineering.
These students may apply for the following courses in University of Helsinki. The courses are intended to complement the courses offered by the home university.
The relevant courses of University of Helsinki are listed below. Before applying for a study right, please check from your own programme whether the course credits fit in your degree. Do this before registering for the planned network studies.
Aalto University and University of Helsinki offer a comprehensive list of quantum-related courses through the QuantEd agreement. The above-mentioned students may apply for a study right on these courses in the other institution.
You can browse the course information in Sisu (e.g., course level, content, prerequisites, contact information of the responsible teachers) as well as the up-coming course implementations (choose the 鈥淐ompletion methods鈥 tab) by clicking the course name.

From the autumn 2025 onward, the study administration process is handled through the cross-institutional studies service RIPA.鈥疶he system is used in the student information system Sisu where students can search and register for the network studies and automatically receive transferred credits for courses completed at the other university.
Please see the Sisu instructions on cross-institutional studies for more details:
Please remember to check from your own degree programme whether the network studies you plan to take fit in your degree. Do this before registering for the planned network studies.
