English is spoken in most parts of Finland. The Aalto Uni campus is fully trilingual (Finnish, English, and Swedish is spoken). It is not mandatory for Indian students to learn Finnish. However, it is very much recommended to fully enjoy life.
Learning Finnish helps in building social connections and also considered positively by recruiters when looking for jobs.
