Recruitment

Apply to the Education Council and Academic Council for the mandate 1.1.2025-31.12.2027

Do you want to influence your studies and education at Hanken? The Educational Council and, simultaneously, the Academic Council—meaning one student representative for both councils—are looking for the following student representatives:

  • Two regular members (Helsinki), one regular member (Vaasa)
  • Two deputy members (Vaasa), one deputy member (Helsinki)

As a student representative, you’ll have the chance to directly impact your studies. Additionally, you’ll gain experience in meeting procedures and advocacy, expand your network within Hanken, and earn a valuable role for your CV.

In return, you’re expected to attend approximately two meetings per month, inform other student representatives about current issues, and be available to answer questions or concerns that students may have about their studies. As a student representative, you’re also automatically a member of the Education Committee, which coordinates the work of the student representatives.

The Educational Council’s mission is to develop education and pedagogy at Hanken. The Academic Council coordinates quality work and handles strategic initiatives related to education and research. Both councils address Hanken’s most important educational matters. Hanken’s rector chairs the Academic Council, while a vice-rector leads the Educational Council.

The term starts on January 1, 2025, and ends on December 31, 2027. Send a freely formulated application to studier@shs.fi by November 5, 2024, at 12:00. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

Take this chance to make a difference! :)
