MURSU PASSPORT

KY can be a difficult community to navigate through at first. There are a ton of clubs, committees, subcommittees, subject clubs, and other organisations wanting to get to know all of you new students. Hopefully our Mursupassport will help you navigate throughout the busy mursu year, you can find it at ky.fi/mursu.

Once you have become a KY member, you will be able to sign in to your personal digital Mursu Passport with the email address or phone number that you signed up to be a KY member with. The passport has loads of different tasks for you to do; visiting the KY Office Espilä, going to an info evening, taking a moment to organise your personal calendar or taking part in the Mursu Championships! Completing tasks earns you points, and you can track your progress in real time on the website as you progress through different stages. The more points you gain, the more prizes you are entitled to!

The mursu passport gives you a lot of information about Orientation week, the KY organisation and the various associations operating either directly or indirectly under KY. The first tasks in the Mursu Passport begin as early as the first days of Orientation Week, so be sure to read through the tasks and participate in everything you find even remotely interesting! You’ll be surprised by the amount of fun activities to collect!

To many, the uni years are the most memorable days of our lives, full of new experiences, friends and rendezvous. However, in the midst of all the fun, we all face challenges and hardships sometimes as it belongs to everyone’s life. In recent years we have focused even more on our members’ individual wellbeing and aimed to create an open and transparent environment, where everyone can share their ups and downs. That’s why we created BeWell.

BeWell was created as a response to the challenges our members face in their wellbeing. With this program KY aims to create an open and transparent environment and make the discussion about difficult topics easier. Are you in need of help but don’t know where to get it? Need someone to talk to? Want to discuss choosing your major? Want to know more about Aalto’s different health services? Check out our Wellbeing page at ky.fi/wellbeing and feel free to contact our BeWell Tutors at any time! The BeWell Tutors are here to offer our members’ peer support in similar experiences that we all go through during our time here at uni, and life in general.

You can meet us at the orientation week and after some lectures during the fall. After the orientation week, we will also organise regular smaller events and a few bigger events during the academic year 2023–2024. More information about our activities will be informed later, so stay tuned! You can also join our peer support channel @ky-bewell on Jodel, where all the BeWell Tutors are ready to answer any questions you may have about starting your studies at BIZ or anything else!
