Title change

Following finnish ARENE's (national board of ammattikorkeakoulu-rectors) outline recommendation dated December 2005, as of January 1st 2006 the whole Finnish Ammattikorkeakoulu -regime unified their international names from several different versions to new "University of Applied Sciences".

This follows eg. german Fachhochschules (similar to which, the Bologna Process has enabled Masters degree -programmes in addition to Bachelors - in Finland the process has been a bit slower though), which already used this name in their international operations. * Ras 22:00, 19 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

The Ministry of Education still prefers the term polytechnic, though.[1] --Mikko Silvonen 14:20, 31 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

But currently, the term polytechnic is not in any use, at least as far as I have seen.193.166.53.253 (talk) 14:19, 14 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
