Other learning and study spaces
Agora and F-Hub
The Agora – the main lobby of the F-wing of the university main building – and the F-Hub study space lying adjacent to the Agora and separated from it by a glass wall, are versatile, multi-functional spaces designed for various activities.
In the Agora, you have the possibility to dine in the restaurant Petronella, but the space is also well-suited for studying, or simply spending time on campus, visiting art exhibitions in the galleries, and you might even get a chance to hear some pop-up live music.
The F-Hub includes more spaces suitable for group work, self-study, and spending time on campus. Our students have a 24/7 access to the F-Hub with their STid mobile access.
Library
The Lapland University Consortium Library expert services are designed to support studying, learning and teaching at the University of Lapland and at the Lapland University of Applied Sciences.
The library users have access to numerous Finnish and foreign databases as well as ca. 510,000 e-books and 85,000 e-journals. The library’s collections include ca. 174,000 print books and the library subscribes to ca. 140 print journals.
In addition, the library premises include reading rooms, group work spaces, and a possibility for printing and copying. The students and staff of the ULapland and Lapland UAS have a 24/7 access to the library with their STid mobile access.
ARCTA – Arctic Art & Design Labs
Our art and design students can benefit from access to our versatile Arctic Art & Design Labs during their studies. We also offer the spaces for organizations as development and testing environments for product development and design projects.
Learning and teaching spaces for art and design
We have a range of special learning and teaching spaces for students of art and design and teacher training: different kinds of studios and laboratories, editing and sound recording facilities, artists’ studios, workrooms, workshops, a darkroom, IT facilities and music classrooms.
Electronic exam environment
The university uses the electronic exam system EXAM, which allows students greater flexibility in taking exams. The EXAM spaces are located opposite the Library and their total seating capacity is 25.
We participate in shared use of EXAM, which means that students of other Finnish universities may reserve a place and complete their exams in our EXAM facilities, and students of our university may take their exams in the equivalent EXAM facilities of other participating universities in Finland.
Spaces and places on campus
When you need to take a break from your hectic day, you will find many relaxing spots on campus. The Agora is a popular spot for students. The F-wing of the main building also has several coffee rooms and meeting spaces for students, and the student associations have their own spaces in the basement floor of the D-wing. Behind the Fellman Hall, there is a space designated for quiet reflection.
At the University of Lapland, you can also discover nature right on the doorstep. On one side, the campus is bordered by a small forest and a scenic pond Harjulampi, where you can enjoy the seasonal beauty of nature all year round, for example by doing the Wellbeing Forest exercises.
