As an alumni of the Faculty of Social Sciences, you can join the university’s free Helsinki Alumni community. There are currently over 57,000 members, including over 3500 from the Faculty of Social 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.
Every January the faculty organises an event as part of the Night of Science (Tieteiden Yö). During the event, which is free and open to all, we showcase the latest research from the faculty based on a particular theme. Presentations from our researchers are deliberately short and allow attendees to ask questions and attend other events being hosted in Helsinki.
All alumni from the Faculty of Social Sciences receive an invitation to the event via our faculty alumni newsletter.
