Associations 

There are numerous student associations within the University of Lapland student community. The most well-known of them might be the subject associations that protect their students’ interests. They are formed by the students of certain majors. However, there is a whole bunch of other associations to get familiar with and join. Many of the associations have their own websites from where you can read more of their work.  

The subject associations 

The subject associations take care of their students’ protection of interests and organize all sorts of activities as a counterbalance to the study work such as parties, seminars, trips to the cabin, excursions and coffee chats. Some of the associations do publication as well. Each of the student associations choose a board annually that takes care of the associations everyday tasks. The board has assemblies, makes decisions and implements the decisions to practice. The websites of the associations provide a colossal amount of information on anything that might puzzle you. Don’t hesitate to contact the people of a certain association directly e.g. via email.
