ACTIVITIES

The purpose of the association is to act as a network for students interested in transportation and infrastructure engineering, to allow its members to form new connections, and to encourage members to exchange ideas with each other and with industry professionals.

This is how our association rules define our activity. In practice that means annual varied excursions, trips to seminars, and other events in collaboration with the companies in our field and with other associations, not to mention the merry get-togethers. Even job offers pop up in our mailing list occasionally.

Most of Linkki’s members are from the Guild of Surveying Engineers, but everyone interested in Linkki’s activities is welcome to join!

The Linkki board has meetings approximately ten times per year.

Here you can find the finnish minutes of past board meetings.
