Are you interested in meeting new people across disciplines and introduce them to the Aalto community of doctoral students? Doctoral education services are looking for tutors for the new doctoral students as part of the Doctoral Orientation Days 5-6 June 2024.

Register to be a tutor: (registration open until 26 May 2024)

As a tutor, you are assigned a group of doctoral students that you meet and greet in person at Âé¶¹´«Ã½. Your role is to welcome the new doctoral students to the Aalto community, help them to get to know the everyday life in Aalto and familiarise them with the most important services on Âé¶¹´«Ã½. 

Usually tutors work in pairs, as long as enough people sign-up. Tutor groups are mixed, meaning that each groups has students from different Schools.
