In 2008, many types of foundations have been laid for the further development of Kajaani Univer-sity Consortium as well. Pro- fessor Jorma Rantanen’s disquisition brought forth many fruitful starting points for deve- lop-ment. Of these, the consortium agree- ment to enhance the cooperation between the University of Oulu and Kajaani University of Applied Sciences deserves a special menti- on. The proposal regard-ing the structure of the Kajaani unit by Professor Rauli Svento’s team was approved at the the meeting of the university board in late 2008. The role of Jyväskylä, the rapidly developing Univer- sity of Eastern Finland and the University of Lapland has gained prominence and become more concrete thanks to Master’s Degree programmes and post-graduate education. International rela-tions have been improved, especially as regards Russia and China. Concrete results become evident as the broadened collaboration agreements of the Consortium. The regional innovation actvi- ties in Kainuu and Upper Savonia are part of the new strategy. The University Consor- tium Evaluation was conducted by the Finn- ish Higher Education Evaluation Council at all university consortiums during the year 2008. The preliminary feedback discussion portrayed the activites of Kajaani University Consortium very favourably.
