Ilkka Virta completed his master's degree in 1989 and his licentiate degree in 1995.[5][6] He defended his dissertation in University of Turku in the spring of 2001 from the issue of immigrant primary school during the war in Finland.[1] Virta's dissertation explains, based on the archival sources, how the adequacy of primary teachers and the resources of schoolchildren were ensured in Finland in 1939–1945.[1]
As part of the activities of these educational institutions, he has organized several history seminars and series of presentations, where the lecturers have been front-line lecturers and writers. Virta himself has lectured on topics related to both the history of education and the history of the surrendered Karelian parishes, and is particularly interested in the history of Vyborg (Viipuri), of which he has also published a few works.[7]
