    The Growth Hacking Course

    Fifth year in a row, together with Columbia Road we run the popular hands-on course on growth hacking, i.e., “getting things done” in the digital world.

    The course starts in period III and goes to end of period IV. The lectures and hands-on training sessions are Wednesdays 9–12 and Thursdays 16–18. Each student is assigned to a team of four that works on a specific project.

    We are ready to take 16 to 20 students, depending on popularity. We have a quota of four students (one team) in English. The lectures etc are in English but the cases are mostly in Finnish, except for one.

    Students with Information Networks as a master’s major have priority, and then we have a special quote of four to non-Finnish speakers. We are able to take a maximum of twenty students.
