The new Finnish version of Aalto Handbook has been published

Aalto käsikirja - Aalto Handbook - is the key document for quality system outlining the university’s activities and its quality management.

The Handbook describes the governance of the university as well as the core activities – research and innovation, art and creative practices, and education – and the enablers of these activities, such as personnel and student related practices. Aalto Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of the university activities for everyone in our community, and as such serves as excellent orientation material for new members of the university.

The goal of the Handbook is also to encourage all members of the Aalto University community to comment on the operating principles of the university and to give feedback and, thus, to contribute to the development of the university’s operations. Comments via wiki for the content of the Handbook are also most welcome.
