Online students
Hey new student!
We, the tutors and division members of HUMAKO, would like to welcome you to Humak! We organise activities for students, just for you.
We also maintain WhatsApp groups for new students during the first semester of your studies, after which the tutors will support you on their own channels. If you haven’t yet joined your starter group, you can do so via this link. Groups are available for all types of degrees and for students of the Open University.
For information on other locations, see the New Student Info for the Helsinki Metropolitan Area, Jyväskylä, Kuopio, Tampere and Turku. You are welcome to participate in any of the events and activities that are close to you.
