Every year, LUT recruits new, enthusiastic students to become tutors. The aim of peer tutoring is to guide new students starting their studies at LUT—first-year students—towards a good start in their studies and to help them integrate into the university community. As a tutor, you will receive valuable tutor training and have the opportunity to network, create unforgettable experiences, and develop your group leadership and interpersonal skills.

Tutor training is organized as a course that can be included in the elective studies of all LUT degree programs. The course is worth 3 ECTS credits, with teaching taking place mainly during the spring semester and tutoring during the autumn semester. Tutors receive a fee for their work.

Application can be made by filling out a webropol form
