HYY influences matters and works for a better student life
The Student Union of the University of Helsinki advocates students’ interests. We organise services, benefits and events so that you can focus on the most important part: studying and student life. You can take your own path, assured of the fact that we will be smoothing the road ahead and advising you when needed.
Our voice can be heard at the University, the city and in events. We believe that happy students build a fairer world. For this reason, it is especially important to look after students. That is our job. That is our responsibility.
