Work as an Aalto student ambassador - take an online course
Student ambassador training has been renewed in Autumn 2023. You may now do the training whenever it suits you as a MyCourses course (). You can accomplish the course anytime during the year and no separate registration is needed. It takes about 1,5 to 2 hours to complete the course.
The training is available in Finnish (now) and Swedish (published during October 2023). The training is organised by Aalto University Admission Services and Student Recruitment team.
Student ambassadors are Aalto students who visit Finnish upper secondary schools to talk about studying at Aalto, the degree programmes offered, student life, as well as career opportunities after graduation.
The student ambassadors should be fluent enough in Finnish or Swedish to be able to give presentations in Finnish or Swedish. The ambassadors can be Bachelor's or Master's students and represent any of Aalto's study fields.
The remuneration for a 45-75 minute presentation is generally 100 €.
See more information on student ambassador activity, remuneration and training on the web page Represent Aalto as a student ambassador.
For further information, you can also contact Aalto University Admission Services (admissions@aalto.fi).
