SUBCOMMITTEES

KY has three subcommittees, each of them doing their part in granting everyone here the most unforgettable university years through organising numerous unique events. In addition to making student life more fun for KY members, all three subcommittees have their own traditions and a tight community to support each other. Many former members look back at their subcommittee years with great fondness and remain friends with each other for the rest of their lives.

NESU- KY

NESU-KY, the Association of Nordic Economic Students’ Union at KY, is the largest of the three subcommittees. Our main responsibility is preserving KY’s sitsi-culture, and our first sitsi party of the semester – Harkkasitsit – is something you don’t want to miss! Our event portfolio also includes career events held in cooperation with future employers, as well as many exclusive events for our members. You might have also heard of our legendary Wappu Terrace!

Each fall we warmly welcome tens of mursus to join us. You can recognize us from NESU-letters and names that embellish our overalls. Once you join NESU-KY, you become part of a tight community that grants you unforgettable experiences for the rest of your studies. Our active alumni are also a frequent sight at our events.

If you want to make the most of your first year at university, NESU is the place to be! For more information, check out our Facebook page @NESUKY or Instagram @nesu_ky

Kuj

KUJ, more formally Kulttuurijaosto, is the Cultural Subcommittee of KY. For decades, KUJ has ensured that KY students get their fair share of parties and events – and will continue to do so for many years to come. The most visible events KUJ arranges are parties like Sillis, Club Lagoon (the largest student club party in Helsinki) and KY’s official entrance exam party. In September, KUJ will welcome you to the student community at Mursujaiset, a 24-hour ordeal for new students, for which you should already brace yourself. You can spot KUJ memebrs from fur collars on their overalls.

KUJ forms a tight-knit community, and former members of the board are often active even years after graduation. As a member of KUJ, you become part of something much larger than just student life – you’ll find yourself at the heart of student culture. The door Is open once and only once, so mursu, choose wisely.

You can find more information at kuj.fi, or by following KUJ on Facebook @KUJry and Instagram @kuj.ry

KY-Sub

KY-Sub, KY’s International Subcommittee, is the youngest and liveliest subcommittee on a mission to integrate exchange and international students into the Finnish student culture. Our allinclusive events range from crazy theme parties (St. Patrick’s Party, Around the World sitsis) to more laid-back hangouts (Welcome & Farewell evenings, sewing overall badges), but we also have events aimed at specific groups of students, such as the memorable Lapland and cottage trips for exchange students, and the wild Mursulaiva for all new students!

Whether you are aiming to build an international career and want to improve your skills, or simply wish to meet new people and have friends all over the world, KYSub is the place to be! By joining, you’ll become part of an evergrowing and loving family, providing support and connections all over the world, long-lasting and close relationships, and a bunch of incredible memories along with many internal events.
