Tallinn University is so welcoming, and the people are friendly and ready to help at times that they can. All that I have learned and acquired I will use in my home country to improve and contribute to building a better educational system from the classroom level.

Master of Educational Innovation and Leadership 



There is something for everyone in the Politics and Governance programme. A good selection of modules, wide variety of lecturers from different parts of the world, and different teaching methods. I’m very happy with my decision to come to Tallinn University and would definitely make the same decision again. 


Anttoni, 2020 

Bachelor of Politics and Governance



I chose TLU because in my opinion it is the best place to study social sciences in Estonia and one of the best universities in Europe and in the world. I have chosen this study programme because of my interest and passion for communication and psychology.

Bachelor of Liberal Arts in Social Sciences 



I was looking for a programme that could help me in my transition from Engineering to the field of Education. Estonia with its remarkable ranking in PISA, and Tallinn University with its 100 years old experience of teaching made me come to Tallinn.
