Metropolia University of Applied Sciences has recently carved out an innovative niche in the domain of real estate education. The university's Myllypuro Campus stands as a testament to the unique convergence of empathetic technologies and architectural brilliance. This groundbreaking vision entails the design of buildings that aren’t just structures but evolving learning environments which dynamically adapt to the needs of its inhabitants – both students and faculty.


In a significant leap, Metropolia's Myllypuro Campus has been awarded the Gold Level Smart Building Certification from the Smart Building Collective. This accolade doesn’t merely recognize their integration of smart technologies but also marks them as the world's first university to be bestowed with this honor. It underscores Metropolia's dedication to innovation, sustainability, and the transformation of real estate education's traditional paradigms.


Key figures, like Jorma Säteri, Head of School, and Harri Hahkala, the technology manager, express their vision of creating a vibrant educational milieu that’s as dynamic and sustainable as it is immersive. Their journey, which started a decade ago, is now a pioneering force for educational institutions worldwide, with Nicholas White of Smart Building Collective lauding their efforts. As Metropolia now eyes the Platinum Level certification, it fortifies its commitment to leading, teaching, and innovating for a brighter future.
