People can come talk to us, Aalto chaplains, irrespective of their religion or beliefs. We’re not here to proclaim, but to listen and assist.
Kalle Kataila
I’m involved in developing a solution that will help transform some teaching into a form more suitable for the video generation. A large part of basic teaching should, in my opinion, fit into a student’s pocket and be accessible 24/7.
Iida Palosuo
It has been so great to be a part of organising DASH, Europe’s biggest hackathon, which sort of blows up any existing sandboxes and aims to come up with even the craziest ideas that might not emerge in normal situations.
Salla Rantamäki
I originally studied materials technology, but it was only after starting my working life that I realised what I really wanted to do for a living. I returned here to study in the Master’s Programme in International Design Business Management (IDBM).
Alexandra Kozlova
When I arrived in Otaniemi, my world view was neatly divided into clear boxes and frames. Now, I try to take things as they come without forcing them into strict frames or categorising.
Anna Rekola
I have now taken part in Technology Academy Finland's internship programme at the Design Factory. During my internship I have been included in a working group where we have thought up ways in which to make this place even better.
Idil Nazli Akture
I just heard I got a job at Pöyry Management Consulting. I will be part of a new team tackling new concepts rather than doing things the old way.
Pravin Luthada
To make composites manufacturing more accessible, Addcomposites has found a way to fully automate the process for small objects. Our technology is already patented, and we are currently testing the solution in real-life cases.
Xiaoyu Ji
I’m taking part in this course where we are experimenting and exploring with materials and doing an exhibition for Finavia at the Helsinki airport.
Henri Turto
I have enjoyed being in Otaniemi so much that I have been here for quite some time. My father has said for years already that the metro comes to Otaniemi before I leave.
Farah Salah
The darkness is not easy to combat, but I’ve learned that walking outside for at least 20 minutes every day while it’s still light out does wonders.
Aleksi Hämäläinen
We had lost our rental flat at the end of spring, so we decided to spend the summer in China – because it is cheaper to live there. We started to study how machine learning could be utilised in the field of robotics.
Minttumeri Hirsimaa
The topic of our course task is humanity. On this art course, I ended up making a two-metre wooden statue using a chain saw.
Ari-Pekka Härkönen
I almost fell off my chair when I heard I’d made the cut in Startuplifers. In practice, this means that the Startuplifers community will help me find a San Francisco company, which will hire me as an intern.
Stella Tuovinen
We recently invited 150 high school students to the Startup Sauna. Addressing the attending high schoolers crystallised to myself, too, just how much I’ve learned here, and what studying is really like.
Ville Leppälä
There are a lot of hackathons that result in little more than a pretty little presentation. For us here at Junction, however, of more significance than a set of slides is that ideas are, through action, transformed into actual concrete form.
Visa Parviainen
We assembled a team and acquired funding to realise Deftify, which originally started from my idea. The point of departure for our project differs from earlier works developed as part of the PDP course.
Tuomas Kyllönen
Our team developed a prototype automated tower crane for Trenox at the PDP course. Our crane enhances construction site safety.
Nelli Ahti
This is my first year at the School of Business. It is great that I’m surrounded by people who are motivated to study and interested in the same things as I am.
Lauri Paukkunen
For the PDP course, our group made a drone that can move indoors and even take the lift. In the near future, drones could be employed in a security and monitoring capacity, for example.
