The author refers to the interview with Timo Vekara, the Head of the Chair of Electrical Engineering and Energy Technologies of the Technological faculty at the University of Vaasa as the main source of information. The specificity of the number and volume of teaching-methodological documentation, content of engineering education in the undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate system of studying is shown on the concrete examples. The results of teaching the innovation direction of engineering science and practice (renewable energy) in the University of Vaasa are delivered. The author underlines the fact that under the situation when modern educational policy of getting double diplomas is being implemented, the curricula coordination among technical higher institutions of different countries calls for profound comprehension of the documentation flow specificity − academically more liberal and textually less loquacious in Finland. The article refers to the factually based material and may be of interest for researchers in the field of comparative studies and academic exchange.
