Diversity creates better technology

If you want to change the world, you should get involved in developing technology. “It is the most effective way of doing things,” says Jouko Lampinen, dean of Aalto University. For this reason, it is essential who designs and implements technology. Hannu Kauppinen from QMill and Johanna Forsman from Murata also speak in favour of diversity.

The number of students in the field of technology who were left without a summer job last year was twice that of the summer of 2023.

TEK also offers them an opportunity to advertise their summer jobs in the TEKrekry LinkedIn group, which is moderated by TEK, free of charge. “Let’s work together and make next summer better than the last,” encourages TEK’s Labour Market Director Teemu Hankamäki.
