The objectives

Finland has its own identity and uniqueness compared to other countries in Europe. Due to this fact, Faculty of Health Science, UiTM Malaysia has always been accepting clinical visits from the Occupational Therapy’s students of Finland. It shows their interest in our educational. Now, it is the time for us to return their clinical visits and learn their country’s educational approach.

We choose Finland as our destination for clinical practice due to their competition and innovation, besides that, they have their own perspective of higher education. It is also one of the largest supplies for educated and skilled labors. The country is a unique example of how a country can rapidly transform itself from a resource-based economy into a base of innovative and intellectual technologies. Since the Finnish citizens are well cared for, we believe that Occupational Therapists’ there have been doing a good job for the targeted community.

The golden opportunity to initiate this international clinical practice has opened a huge opportunity for UiTM and its students. Some of the benefits that may be garnered from this event would be:

To enhance UiTM image as a world-class university, capable of hosting internationally renowned events.


● As a platform to share opinions on academic advancement and intellectual attainment.
● To encourage more participation from UiTM students in international events.
● To further strengthen UiTM’s brand by producing all-rounder students.
● To integrate UiTM’s social communication with international environment.
● To expose Occupational Therapy students in specialized clinical practice areas such as special education, occupational safety and health, and community rehabilitation.
