Welcome to the protip page of the AS study committee. Here you can find useful tips and links regarding your studies.
The purpose of this section is to ease students to study more efficiently and bring up things that you didn't even know you needed! So this section primarily lists things including information that you can't easily find from Aalto University's own websites.
This pro-tip page is only maintained by students, so you can also influence the content of this page if you wish. The updating of the page is handled by the Guild's Master of Studies opintomestari (at) as.fi, so please get in touch if you want to add beneficial material to the page.
