Typically for Finnish institutions in this band — universities of applied sciences (AMK) — a recognised bachelor's degree that qualifies you for master's study in India, plus, for most AMK master's degrees, at least two years (occasionally three) of relevant work experience gained after that degree; this is a formal eligibility rule and international applicants are not exempt. English is usually IELTS around 6.0-6.5 overall with a minimum in each section as well, and selection normally includes an entrance exam or written task.
