Sisu is the student information system you will use to manage your studies at Tampere University, including course registrations. You will gain access to Sisu after you have been officially admitted and activated your university-provided TUNI account. Once logged in, Sisu allows you to:

• View your personal information, such as your contact details in Finland (remember to update)
• Find your student number at Tampere University
• Access your Finnish Learner ID, available a few weeks after account activation
• Check your study right, including the field of study you have been admitted to
• Create and manage your Personal Study Plan (PSP)
• Register for teaching, including courses and exams
• Review your academic records and download an official, digitally signed transcript of records

After your course registrations in Sisu, you can view your weekly course schedule in Sisu's study calendar and on the intranet. Please note that the Personal Study Plan in Sisu is a distinct list of courses. It is not the same as the Erasmus+ Learning Agreement or the preliminary study plan.
