The highlight of the ceremony will be the speech of graduating student, given by Janita Stenroos. She stresses the importance of multicultural elements: “It is my pleasure to thank and congratulate all our lovely international students. Each and every one of you enrich the whole Metropolia University of Applied Sciences bringing multicultural environment to our studies. I believe that every one of our Finnish speaking students wants to let you know how grateful we are, that you were part of our journey in Metropolia.”
