You may wonder, why have I gotten a textmessage about my well-being today?

Hanken has sent out a text message to all degree students via the Annie app with a survey about your well-being. We would like to know how your studies are going and how you are feeling. In the survey, you get to take a stance on five different statements on a scale of 1-5 where 1 = completely of a different opinion and 5 = completely of the same opinion.

Thank you for taking the time to answer the survey.

Experience can be more than just an internship or

Experience can be more than just an internship or a job: volunteering is a great opportunity to engage with society, learn new skills, and build your CV. Did you know that at Hanken you can gain 5 credits from volunteering (bachelor's degree students course 9997, master's degree students course 38009)? Here is Darlene's story:

"Having been with 180 Degrees Consulting Helsinki, I realized that what I have got from my volunteer experience is not only personal development in terms of professional skills but also social impacts by helping out local NGOs. It is a win-win situation for me as an international student in Finland looking for opportunities to gain experiences from extra curriculum activities, and local NGOs seeking out to tackle their problems.

To be more specific, by working on a consulting project for local NGOs, I could utilize my study at school to help local NGOs overcome their challenges and reach their full potential solving the organizations’ problem. Some of the NGOs 180 Degrees Consulting Helsinki worked with are Finnish Refugee Council, Monaliiku, Fida, Physician for Social Responsibility and so on."

We're in the middle of application season! The app

We're in the middle of application season! The application for our Master's Degree Programme in English is open right now and closes on January the 15th, our PhD application opens in just two weeks (16th December- 3rd February 2021), and spring and applications for the Swedish programmes is just around the corner. So why choose Hanken? Great question, let's give you a few reasons:

❤️ As Hanken is a research-oriented triple crown university-level business school, research-based studies is a given. Our students receive an education that gives them the tools to take on the future's challenges; to think analytically and to communicate effectively for both academic and business purposes.

🧡 Hanken is located in Helsinki and in Vaasa. Both cities have a vibrant business life and are definitely hubs for the Finnish industries' headquarters and factories. The central locations enable Hanken to cooperate with the businesses and different industries, ensuring that our students get offered loads of possibilities to connect with possible future employers.

💛 We are proud of being one of the most international universities in the Nordics, as all our BSc students go on exchange. To achieve this we have built an impressive list of Partner Universities with the world's top universities and business schools.

💚 Our alumni are sought after on the labour market, which is a strong testament to the quality of education we offer. 96 % of our alumni have a job within 6 months of graduation (2018 & 2019 graduates).

💙 We have a unique and fantastic student life. Our very own student union @shsmoments is known as 'Finland's most fun student union' as a reflection of the numerous events organized weekly. The student union also works to make sure that students have a say in in all important decision-making bodies at Hanken, thus placing students’ interests as a central point in all decisions made at the university. #hanken

"Quantum should also be understood as a vision of Hanken; we see ourselves educating future leaders who have a solid understanding of how data-driven insights can help them make better business decisions. And these business decisions are not just for making more profit, they are also for being more sustainable. And that is a very important goal for me, but also especially for Hanken." Othmar notes.

Did you miss last week's event: Panel Discussion:

Did you miss last week's event: Panel Discussion: ”Sustainable strategies in turbulent times”? No worries, you can watch the stream through the most recent news article on hanken.fi 🎬.

Consumers' choices will have a strong impact on the future development in society. It is, however, still too early to say which of the changes in behavior caused by the corona pandemic will persist. This was stated by the panelists in the discussion "Sustainable Strategies in Turbulent Times - Key Factors for Renewal", which was broadcasted online from Hanken on 11 November.

The panellists were Kristina Heinonen, Professor of Service and Relationship Marketing at Hanken School of Economics, Sebastian Nyström, EVP & Chief Transformation Officer at SOK Corporation, Heidi Schauman, Chief Economist at Swedbank, and Fredrik Wildtgrube, Vice President at Finnair Cargo.

Marc Hinnenberg (CEO at Hanken&SSE Executive Education) moderated the discussion. The event was hosted by Camilla Wardi, Head of Corporate Relations and Outreach at Hanken. #hanken

Vaasa Hanken 40 years Political discussions about

Vaasa Hanken 40 years

Political discussions about whether to merge Hanken in Vaasa with Åbo Akademi University or with the University of Vaasa have been ongoing ever since Hanken in Vaasa was established in 1980 . Today Sören Kock, dean and rector’s representative in Vaasa, sees the possibility of Hanken in Vaasa remaining as Hanken in a positive light. “I find it fascinating that a Triple-Crown accredited university manages to operate in two locations,” Kock remarks.

Stepping through the gates of Hanken in Vaasa, one is reminded of its history. The Tiklas property in central Vaasa was until 1960 a textile factory; among other products it manufactured the textiles used in the popular Finnish maternity packages (baby clothes and other products distributed to every Finnish newborn). The industrial interior of the factory has changed over the years, and today the premises can boast the latest that our information society has to offer.

Leadership is about having visions and about a practice-oriented attitude towards the world. Though ultimately, leadership is about people. It is important to spend time with people from different backgrounds who think differently than you do - you always learn something new from them, said Helsinki Mayor Jan Vapaavuori who spoke for Hanken students today.

The ongoing pandemic is affecting all of our lives

The ongoing pandemic is affecting all of our lives. It is also our collective responsibility to make sure that we protect ourselves and others from the virus. As such, amongst other places, we at Hanken strongly recommend the use of face masks when you visit Hanken’s premises! Though this is only a recommendation, we hope that all of our staff and students take the recommendation seriously.

When taking off your face mask to eat or drink, remember to clean or replace your mask. Also, note that a mask won't last you the whole day. At Hanken's entrances you can find a steamer to clean your mask in between uses. In case you use single use masks, keep a few in a zip-lock bag in your pocket or bag.

Hanken has bought a signature face mask for students and staff. In Helsinki, one face mask per person can be picked up from IB during opening hours.

Thank you for setting an example and protecting others in society.

Hanken has bought purewaste signature face masks f

Hanken has bought purewaste signature face masks for all students and staff. The masks are available for pickup in both Helsinki and Vaasa as of 30.9. In Helsinki the masks can be picked up from @ib_bokhandel and in Vaasa from the student association’s boardroom.

We strongly recommend the usage of face masks during in-class teaching, examinations, service situations, and when keeping a safe distance is not possible. Note that the masks are free but limited to one mask per student, please respect the limit and reuse your mask by following the cleaning instructions attached. Additionally, remember that the instructions for visiting Hanken’s premises are still in place: use your own key, and in case you have symptoms of any form stay safe by staying home. #hanken

Stay unique and authentic! Greetings from Mélani

Stay unique and authentic!

Greetings from Mélanie Oun, who recently graduated with a Master’s degree in Business and Management – International Strategy and Sustainability.

“As an international student from France, I have benefited greatly from Hankens career services.

If I look at my CV, my experience at KPMG thanks to the Hanken International Talent™️ is the most valuable when I apply for jobs in Finland. I believe it is a company I would not be able to reach without this talent management -programme.

Some of the great opportunities I got was both a mentor and a two-year “Digital Academy” -programme within KPMG, which I tried both in office and working remotely. It included a 4-month traineeship in the International Development Advisory Services, where I was working in advisory for the EEP Africa Project (eepafrica.org) and supporting the audit team in various assignments. I had a great time learning new areas and looked into financial reports, M&E analytics, communication, screening of project applications, quality review of various reports. It was a rich experience to get involved with the innovative renewable energy projects in Southern and East Africa.

My advice for those who have international background, coming from abroad you have more arguments to have different experiences that are unique and authentic. Bring out your hobbies and how your lived international experiences can show that you are a good future mentee or colleague to be around.

Have a great year ahead and keep communication open!” - Mélanie

Thank you!☀️

Sunny greetings from Vaasa! I am Mwangi Magana, I

Sunny greetings from Vaasa! I am Mwangi Magana, I come from Kenya and I have been studying general management (Organization and Entrepreneurship track) in Vaasa Campus.

My best advice is be social and jump into every opportunity to network, including Hanken International Talent™️ (#HankenHIT) for international masters' students.

I applied to the Hanken HIT even before joining Hanken and despite not being eligible that time (it was for Helsinki students only) I still got a chance for the interview with Wärtsilä HR. I did not get a mentor, but I followed it up and half a year later I got one. Although I was not qualified to join his team because he was doing finance, he still recommended me, and I landed a job in a different department in the same company. With social capital, it is not obvious the right way or the best contacts to reach just try and even if you fail you will learn one way of how NOT to do it. Better make mistakes earlier than later.

HIT experience gave me an opportunity to explore my potential, gain better understanding of real challenges facing companies and build my professional network. It also made me feel that international student are supported and that is what we all need when are new in the country. This was one differentiating factor for me for selecting Hanken as a study place.

I wish you all the best despite the times!

Hello to all the new students at Hanken. I want to wish you a wonderful time, lots of joy and great memories. I hope that, despite the difficult situation, you will enjoy your time at Hanken and become part of the student community.

My tip for you is that if you are having problems or questions, don’t hesitate to write an email to your professor, lecturer, or the administration. The people at Hanken are very friendly and want to help you.

Good Morning from Finland's sunniest city - Vaasa!

Good Morning from Finland's sunniest city - Vaasa! ☀️ Congrats on your choice of Hanken, my name is Lydia (to the right) and although I started my studies four years ago it feels like my first day at Hanken was only yesterday. Nevertheless, after these years living and studying in Vaasa, here are my top 3 tips for you:

1) Participate in the student union's events as much as possible, it's a great way to make friends!
2) Some courses may feel challenging. Be sure to help out a friend in need and you too will receive help if you ask for it. Shared success is the best kind <3
3) If you're from out of town (like me) instead of spending your weekends taking the train/car back homehome - go check out what Vaasa has to offer, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

PS. Make sure to follow @sshvrf to sneak a preview on what the student union is up to in Vaasa - see you soon!

Congratulations and welcome to Hanken! 🎉 I'm Eliott, an entrepreneurship student starting my fifth year at Hanken. My tip for all you new guys is to be open minded and try out new things during your first year. With this mindset, you’ll explore the major which is the most fitting for you, and you’ll new people that might become friends for life!

Fun fact: The best (and by far the largest) couch to chill in at Hanken is definitely at the Student Union, which lies right next to the main building. Check it out!

Happy Monday folks! Here is a welcome greeting fro

Happy Monday folks! Here is a welcome greeting from Reetuparna:

Welcome to the land of a thousand lakes! Being an international student myself, I can vouch that you’re in for a pleasant surprise! International students prepare to see a wonderful plethora of colours in Helsinki! I love to go to the beaches during the summers and bask in the sun. The various lakes and islands around Helsinki make you want to explore the city every day, especially when the sun is out. You should definitely check out Nuuksio, Suomenlinna and Vallisaari for a nature escape and (ofc) astonishing views.

This vibrant, energetic and yet PEACEFUL city will make you fall in love with it! Besides, I have made wonderful friends here and I find the people very welcoming and warm!

Be sure to attend all Master’s/Exchange Committee events as and when they take place! They are super fun 😊

I hope you have a great time here!

Besides new masters' and bachelors' students we also welcome new PhD students to Hanken 💙. PhD students are a valuable part of the Hanken community, both as part of the student community as well as an important part of our academic staff. Here's a greeting from Valeria to you all:

What I love the most about doing my PhD at Hanken is the freedom to research what you are truly interested in. Do not get me wrong, it is still very challenging and at times devastating. BUT the moment you present outcomes of your research to others, be it an international academic conference, a doctoral colloquium or a yearly progress seminar, makes all of your hard work worth it. My advice to the new PhD students is to enjoy the studies and take every opportunity to present your work in Finland and abroad!

Hello all you new bachelors and masters students a

Hello all you new bachelors and masters students and welcome to Hanken!

My name is Nicolina (to the left), a marketing student soon starting my fourth year at Hanken.

Studying usually requires a lot of time spent sitting still and that’s why my tip for you is that there’s never a bad time for a studybreak. Coming down to the foyer to catch up with friends during studybreaks will work as a great motivation booster and you’ll get some of that good ”hyötyliikunta” (excerise) in the process as well! 🏃‍♀️

The same applies for studying from home, get up from your chair, do some of your dishes or maybe even take a walk around the block every once in a while to reset.

Hope you’ll have a good one at Hanken, and make sure to check out what the student union has to offer as well!

#welcometohanken #hanken

Hey there and a warm welcome to all new Hankeits 👋! I’m Rita and I’m starting my third year as a master’s student this fall. I study marketing in the Business & Management programme and I’m currently working on my master’s thesis. I’m also the President of the Masters’ Committee @shsmasterscommittee and a tutor to new master’s students.

2020 has obviously been an unpredictable year so far and with mostly online teaching, the fall is looking a bit unusual as well. That’s why I encourage all new students to be especially active, socialize and participate in events (online or offline) to get to know your fellow students and make new friends. And remember that you can always reach out to us tutors, if you have any questions or concerns!

A final pro tip for the Finnish-speaking students like myself: Hanken is the best place to brush up on your Swedish (also as a master’s student), so take the Each One Teach One course, join a club or a committee and put yourself into situations where you can use Swedish. It’s so rewarding to see how fast you can improve your Swedish skills in a Swedish-speaking environment.

Time for another greeting from a student:

Welcome to Hanken! 👋My name is Joakim (to the very left). I'm begining my fourth year here at Hanken in Vaasa. My tip is to always try to get to know new people and our school cafeteria is a great place for hanging out and meeting new friends! There, or at a silliz. I would recomend them both! I hope you all are going to have a great time at Hanken!

Summer is approaching ☀️! We are aware that many summer jobs have been cancelled and some are at risk due to the ongoing situation. As such, at the request of the student union, our departments have worked hard on increasing the number of summer courses offered during S2 and S1. Summer courses are a great way for you to progress in your studies and can due to the odd times we live in be conducted from the safety of your home. The registration for courses in S2 (yes, the first summer period/the last period of the academic year) is open. The courses are being added into WebOodi when confirmed, this also applies to changes in course descriptions in response to the situation. Everything will be published no later than the 6th of May. Registration for S1 opens on the 1st of August if nothing else is mentioned in the description.

Summer courses can be found through Weboodi ➡️ Courses ➡️ Study Handbooks Summer courses May-June 2020, Helsinki and Vaasa, 2019-20 & Summer courses August 2020, Helsinki and Vaasa, 2020-21. Note that some courses are yet to find their way onto Weboodi, but once they are confirmed and there we will inform you on stories 💛. #hanken #hankenremote #studyinsummer
