Call for doctoral student tutors, September 2023
Register to be a tutor: (registration continued until 27.8.2023)
As a tutor, you are assigned a group of doctoral students that you meet and greet in person at campus. 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 campus.
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.
Tutors are welcome to participate in the whole orientation programme, but are expected to participate at minimum as follows:
