Bachelor students have the opportunity to apply for a double degree program. This program lasts a total of 8 semesters, including the bachelor's thesis and the bachelor's examination. The first four semesters are completed at MCI, the next three semesters at Centria University of Applied Science in Kokkola, Finland. The last semester is completed either at MCI or at Centria University of Applied Science. Upon successful completion of this double degree program, students will receive the academic degrees Bachelor of Science in Engineering (MCI) and Bachelor of Engineering (Centria University of Applied Sciences). The program focuses on environmental chemistry and chemical engineering.
