The Finnish youth's competence in mathematics and natural sciences is top-level among the OECD countries. However, it has been found that 15-years-old youths' level of interest towards these subjects is quite low according to the PISA results. The National LUMA Centre (LUMA stands for the Finnish terms for natural sciences and mathematics) was launched in 2004 to serve as a collaborative organisation between universities, schools and business sector.
