As an alumni of the Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences, you can join the university’s free Helsinki Alumni community. There are currently over 57,000 members, including over 2 500 from the Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences.
By joining our free Helsinki Alumni community, you can take part in a wide range of opportunities to expand your network, learn new skills and share your experiences with others.
Every year the Faculty organises activities which bring together alumni of different ages to connect with and learn from each other. As a member of the free Helsinki Alumni community, you will receive our faculty alumni newsletter which is sent twice a year. Through our newsletter, we will keep you up to date with the latest research, news and events from the faculty and share opportunities for you to get involved in.
There are also many ways for you to give back and support our students and the faculty’s mission. For example, by mentoring our current students, offering a traineeship or commissioning a master’s thesis.
Participate in the alumni activities of student organisations. Many student organisations, such as the Faculty-specific Biosfääri student association and the sub-associations under its auspices, arrange activities in which alumni play a key role.
The Faculty hosts or is associated with several research units and projects that organise interesting events open to the public, including the Thriving Nature project, the ViPS centre and the Helsinki Institute of Sustainability Science HELSUS.
