Information on student employment
When studying, many aspects of working life are new. For example, employment and salary levels in different sectors are issues that many students and recent graduates wonder about. The Union of Professional Engineers in Finland conducts two annual surveys of the situation for students and recent graduates. The results will help you see what working looks like for engineering students and recent graduates.
Student Survey 2025
The student survey is now open! The survey is targeted at all university of applied sciences students in the field of technology. Through this survey, we collect information about summer jobs, salary levels, and students’ thoughts regarding their future working life.
