Taking part in KY activities grants you opportunities like these and much more! Diverse activities are at the heart of KY.

Contact the KY Office to get involved.
Subcommittees
Each year, over a hundred new mursus join one of our subcommittees – the cultural subcommittee KUJ, the association for nordic economic students NESU-KY, or our international subcommittee KY-Sub. Many former members of KUJ, NESU and KY-SUB look back at their subcommittee years with great fondness and remain in contact with the students with whom they have shared the experience. Don’t miss their info evenings during the fall – some doors only open once.

Subject clubs
Subject clubs represent the variety of subjects taught at Aalto University School of Business. Each study programme has a subject club organizing leisure time activities and maintaining good relations with the faculty. The clubs also arrange excursions to visit future employers and familiarize students with the fields in which they will work. Despite the subject specific alignment, everyone is welcome to attend the events regardless of study background – it’s enough to show interest in the matter!
