Career Monitoring Survey is still open!
The university follows the careers of the graduates, e.g. with a career monitoring survey. Career Monitoring Survey has started in October. The target group of the survey is those who have completed a Master’s degree in 2019 and those who completed their doctorate in 2021. The survey is carried out in cooperation with other universities as part of the Aarresaari network and this is the 20th year for career monitoring survey. Please, more information here.
Why should you answer the survey? With the help of surveys, information is gathered about the academic labor market, the career paths of university graduates, and feedback about studies is collected. The information obtained is used in the guidance of current and future students (e.g. the Töissä.fi- service, which is said to be a particularly popular tool in high schools), in the development of curricula, and in studies about the working life of university graduates. The master’s career monitoring survey is also part of the universities’ funding model, so the feedback is really important to the university.
Those who belong to the target group are approached by letter, e-mail or text message, so if you’ll received a contact, we really hope that you will respond to it! The Career Monitoring Survey is open till 9th of December, so you are still able to respond. The results of previous years can be viewed e.g. Vipunen, maintained by the Board of Education. from the fi statistics service and the aforementioned Töissä.fi service.

Changes to the Peppi PSP view
The student’s PSP view in Peppi has been simplified by hiding the “Group description” tab.
The change is due to the tab’s lesser use and security reasons. This change is also reflected on the teacher’s and administrative staff’s desktops.
The change comes into effect on 5 November 2024.
