The best aspect of Viikki Campus, with its study facilities, shops and apartments, is the community engendered by it. Viikki is also excellent as a location, as it offers a green and beautiful setting which inspires research and teaching.
Networking

In addition to degree studies, Viikki is home to active operators who offer a range of ways to, for example, develop skills in project management and collaboration. Networking takes place alongside working and learning together. Among other things, we have ViikkiAreena, an employment-oriented event run by students, where many have even found summer jobs.
Student culture

Networking and learning also take place in connection with the activities of discipline-specific student associations, the heart of student culture. Discipline-specific associations and other organisations relating to student culture, including the musical theatre association Viikki Speksi, Viikki Brewing Society and Sisu International Sports United, provide students interested in culture, brewing or sports with a spectrum of hobby opportunities. Moreover, student culture should not be overlooked as a creator of community spirit in Viikki. Student culture also features in the background of many companies that originate in Viikki.
