AWESOME PARTIES AND STUDENT LIFE TO REMEMBER

JAMKO kicks off student autumn with a three-part mega-event! JAMKO Kick-Off presents a wild SFA-rally, a memorable inland waterway cruise and an epic after-party! Stay tuned and be quick as the cruise is always sold out!

The Freshmen party Fuksiaiset is an upbeat, community event organised by JAMKO to welcome new students to the Jamk student community. The event brings freshmen together from across campuses and leads them through a series of mission puzzles, collecting points and exploring their new student town. Above all, the Freshmen partyis a fun and safe way to meet new people, break down barriers between fields of study and dress up in a different theme each year – the best outfits are rewarded!

At the Overall Oath Party, proud jumpsuit owners take the oath of allegiance and receive the essential baptism of student life, preventing student life from becoming dry. So put on your shiny new overall, and dip them as the official student uniform. The event will be MOIST – so come prepared! More about the student overalls

Have fun, stay active and make new friends!

Throughout the school year, a variety of sports and wellbeing events provide an opportunity to get together, move and have fun.

TryOut Tuesday is an event concept that gives students the opportunity to try new sports and activities with a low threshold. The planning takes into account the diversity of people, the variety of sports and accessibility. We have tried things like aerial yoga, bouldering and magnetic fishing. It doesn’t matter how good you are, the most important thing is to get out there and try something new in good company.

Student Wellbeing Week is an annual themed event that focuses on students’ overall wellbeing – physical, mental and social. A varied programme of activities is organised to provide support for coping, tips for managing everyday life and moments of relaxation and togetherness. Wellbeing Week invites you to take a moment, take care of yourself and find ways to feel better in the midst of your studies.

These events are always intoxicant-free, generally free of charge or at least low-cost for JAMKO members!

Remember also the JAMKO Gym where members workout for free!

SEE THE WORLD WITH JAMKO

JAMKO and TimeTravels organizes a trip every semester to an interesting location on a student budget. When travelling with JAMKO you get to visit magical Finnish Lapland or the majestic scenery of Lofoten Islands. Trips are organized and guided in English. Trips are arranged in the spring and autumn semesters, but the number of people that can be accommodated is limited. The trips are popular and fill out quickly, so pay attention to JAMKO’s communication channels. JAMKO members get an additional discount off of these already affordable trips.
