Tornio, larger than it’s size would assume, forms a unique twin city with Haparanda in Sweden. Located at the heart of the campus, XBit develops digital experiences as part of it’s educational offerings.
The campus main doors are open Monday to Friday from 7:15 am to 4:30 pm. The campus is closed on weekends and public holidays. In addition, holiday periods (summer and Christmas) may affect the opening hours; these will be announced separately.
Our students can use the learning environments and libraries in our facilities even when the doors are locked/closed. The access control token is a mobile application that is valid during the study period (for students registered as present). Application forms will be processed and approved within approximately one week from the date of application.
Students apply for a personal access control badge or access control card via Tuudo (People and Services | Access Control Badge). The student agrees to comply with the rules of use provided and is responsible for the secure storage of the badge/card.

Rental of a heating pitch
A parking permit for the heating pitch can be rented from the service adviser. The parking permit entitles you to park in the on-campus temperature parking lot during the winter season from November 1 to April 15 and must be displayed near the windshield. It is possible to park in the heating pitches outside the heating season (no right to use electricity). Daytime rental of a heating pitch is not possible.

Bicycle racks with frame locks are available near the entrances. Storage of bicycles/carts indoors is prohibited.
Batteries for electric bikes/scooters, etc. must not be charged on campus or with electricity. Charging batteries on the premises poses a safety risk. Batteries may be stored on the premises, but not charged.
