- The Finnish welfare wtate from a student perspective
School of Business | Bachelor's thesis(2024) Kautto, EemilIn Finland, students receive various subsidies from the state to enable them to study fulltime in higher education. These subsidies have a long history of reforms that have influenced the structure of the system as we see it today. Students' daily lives are also significantly affected by housing, for which Finnish welfare state offers student housing as a solution, in addition to the rental market. The main aim of this thesis is to formulate comprehensive overview of the system and to assess it from various angles. To assess the overall picture as comprehensively as possible, it is necessary to take into account the objectives set by the policy makers for their reforms, economic theory relating to the topic and the impact of the system on the consumer, i.e. the student. A systematic review of the overall picture has been carried out based on existing source material and literature on the subject.
