Recruitment
Become a Buddy Spring 2025
Interested in meeting exchange students from around the world?
Would you like to make new friends, practice your language skills, or add an international experience to your studies? If you answered yes to any of these, then YOU should become a Buddy! 🌍✨
As a Buddy for exchange students at Hanken, you’ll have a unique chance to connect with people from diverse backgrounds. Students come from all corners of the globe—Europe, Asia, Canada, Mexico, and beyond. This is your opportunity to learn about different cultures and languages in a fun, relaxed way. You’ll share experiences both at Hanken and during your free time, doing activities you enjoy together.
Each Buddy is paired with one or more exchange students, creating a personal and meaningful connection. Additionally, all Buddies can participate in events and trips organized by the Exchange Committee (EC). These gatherings are perfect for bonding with your exchange student(s) and building lifelong friendships. You’re also welcome to plan your own meet-ups—grab a coffee, have lunch, play sports, or explore the city together. The choice is yours! ☕️🍴🎳⛸️🤍🎬
The Buddy Program is organized by the Exchange Committee, which works to warmly welcome exchange students to SHS and ensure their time in Finland is unforgettable. We invite all fellow Hankeiter to join us in creating memories that will last a lifetime. 🤝🌟
The Buddy application form is available via the link below. The deadline to sign up is at 23:59 on the 10th of January (Friday). 🫶
