Line 29: == Finland == A classical university with several colleges is called ''yliopisto'' in Finnish. However, some specialized universities are called ''korkeakoulu'', because unlike classical universities, they focus only on one discipline, even though they have the same status as an ''yliopisto''; for example, [[Helsinki Theatre Academy|Teatterikorkeakoulu]], a theatre school, can be considered a single "theater college". The [[Vocational university|vocational universities]], however, are called ''[[ammattikorkeakoulu]]''. The potential for confusion has led some ''korkeakoulu''s to change their name to ''yliopisto'', abandoning the distinction between the terms ''yliopisto'' and ''korkeakoulu''. Additionally three Greater Helsinki-based ''korkeakoulu''s, [[Helsinki University of Technology]], [[University of Art and Design Helsinki]] and [[Helsinki School of Economics]], have opted to merge to form the [[Aalto University]], ''Aalto-yliopisto''. == Germany == [[University College Freiburg]] is the central institution for international and [[interdisciplinary teaching]] at the [[University of Freiburg]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=University College Freiburg at Albert Ludwigs Universität {{!}} Arizona International |url=https://international.arizona.edu/study-abroad/exchange/university-college-freiburg-albert-ludwigs-universit%25C3%25A4t |access-date=2024-06-16 |website=international.arizona.edu |language=en}}</ref> Its main project is hosting the first public English-language [[Liberal arts education|Liberal Arts and Sciences]] program in Germany.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Holzbauer |first=06 05 2022 um 14:38 von Cornelia |date=2022-05-06 |title=Auf Probleme in der heutigen Welt reagieren |url=https://www.diepresse.com/6135779/auf-probleme-in-der-heutigen-welt-reagieren |access-date=2024-06-16 |website=Die Presse |language=de}}</ref><ref name=":9">{{Citation |last=Eschenbruch |first=Nicholas |title=University College Freiburg: Toward a New Unity of Research and Teaching in Academia |date=2016 |work=Experiences in Liberal Arts and Science Education from America, Europe, and Asia: A Dialogue across Continents |pages=91–108 |editor-last=Kirby |editor-first=William C. |url=https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-349-94892-5_7 |access-date=2024-06-16 |place=New York |publisher=Palgrave Macmillan US |language=en |doi=10.1057/978-1-349-94892-5_7 |isbn=978-1-349-94892-5 |last2=Gehrke |first2=Hans-Joachim |last3=Sterzel |first3=Paul |editor2-last=van der Wende |editor2-first=Marijk C.}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Zeitung |first=Badische |date=2016-10-17 |title=Die ersten 50 Absolventen des University College Freiburg haben ihren Abschluss gemacht |url=https://www.badische-zeitung.de/die-ersten-50-absolventen-des-university-college-freiburg-haben-ihren-abschluss-gemacht |access-date=2024-06-16 |website=Badische Zeitung |language=de}}</ref> It serves as a lab for innovative teaching approaches and instructional design.<ref name=":9" /> Students follow a four-year bachelor program consisting of 240 [[Liberal arts education|ECTS credits]], and graduate with either a Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Arts.<ref name=":3">{{Cite web |last= |first= |date= |title=Curriculum |url=https://www.ucf.uni-freiburg.de/liberal-arts-and-sciences/curriculum |url-status=live |archive-url= |archive-date= |access-date=2020-08-24 |website=www.ucf.uni-freiburg.de |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Liberal Arts and Sciences (BA/BSc) at University College Freiburg |url=https://www2.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/international-programmes/en/detail/4368/ |access-date=2024-06-16 |website=www2.daad.de}}</ref> == Ireland == Line 95 ⟶ 98: The [[University of Rhode Island]], the [[University of North Carolina Wilmington]], [[Illinois State University]], [[Arizona State University]], [[Ball State University]], and the [[University of Oklahoma]] enroll all of their new students into their programs under the name of "University College", which does not grant degrees, but instead provides orientation, academic advising, and support for [[honors student]]s, probationary students, student [[sportsperson|athletes]], and/or students undecided in their choice of [[academic major]].
