Apply to be a Student Representative in University Administration for the term 2027–2028!
We are looking for student representatives, also known as hallopeds, for the Academic Board, the Education Council, the Societal Interaction Council, the Appeals Committee, and all seven Faculty Councils for the term 2027–2028. The application period is from 24 August to 13 September 2026.
The bodies decide on and monitor matters relating to the supply and structure of education, student intake, the quality of education, curricula, and the societal impact of the university. The role of the student representatives is to act as the voice of students within the university administration and to ensure that students’ interests are not overlooked in decision-making. You can fill in the application and act as a student representative in all of the bodies using either Finnish or English as your working language.
Halloped positions are suitable both for students with previous experience in advocacy work and for those who have only recently become interested in the topic. Faculty councils, for example, are an excellent place to begin a career in student advocacy, while the Academic Board is better suited for those with more extensive experience in advocacy.

Many employers attend Job Fair Tampere to meet potential future employees and build their talent network, even if they don’t have open positions available right now.
