Aalto University is honestly such an amazing place. The campus is right in the middle of nature, with woods and water all around. The student life here is super active, there are tons of student clubs that host different events all over the week, which provide great opportunities to make some new friends!
One thing that really surprised me was how multidisciplinary the courses are. Being able to collaborate in diverse teams of designers and engineers is a rare opportunity that simply doesn’t exist at many other institutions. It really pushes you to think outside the box and reflect more deeply on your work.
P.S. If you’re lucky, you can even catch the Northern Lights right from campus!
