Iltakoulu (literally translated Nightschool) is the student association for the students of Political Science and International Relations in University of Tampere. Iltakoulu’s main purpose is to represent the interests of its members in academic affairs as well as to provide a number of various activities for people to enjoy. As a student association we are one of the most active ones considering our relatively small size on the university’s general scale.

Events organized by Iltakoulu include parties, game evenings, sport and culture events, excursions and sauna nights, just to name a few. Like other student associations, Iltakoulu can also influence the curriculum and report any problems, suggestions and wishes to the staff of our department if need be. Also, through various work-related and informational events, Iltakoulu aims to improve the job market competency of its members. All in all, Iltakoulu is a community to which everyone is welcome.

International students are more than welcome to attend the multitude of events that Iltakoulu organizes throughout the year! If you have any questions regarding our organization, events and activities, feel free to contact the board members, we will gladly help.
