Application period for student representatives, also known as hallopeds, for the Faculty Councils of the Faculty of Information Technology and Communication Sciences, the Faculty of Education and Culture, and the Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences for the term 2027–2028 has been extended.
The application period for these positions ends on 20 September 2026.
The application period for student representatives for the following Faculty Councils has been extended:
- Information Technology and Communication Sciences: 5 members, 5 deputy members
- Education and Culture: 5 members, 5 deputy members
- Engineering and Natural Sciences: 5 members, 5 deputy members
The term of office of each position open for application will start on 1 January 2027 and end on 31 December 2028. 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.
The Faculty Councils address faculty activities in research, teaching, and societal interaction, monitoring finances and following current issues concerning both the University and the faculty. 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.
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 are an excellent place to begin a career in student advocacy, but there is also plenty to do for those who have done advocacy longer.
