Orientation days for students starting their studies @ LUT Lappeenranta campus in international programmes (taught in English) are organized from 26 to 29 of August 2025.

Orientation programmes for bachelors degree students in international programmes (taught in English) find their orientation programmes on this site (links below).

Bachelor's degree students starting their studies in Finnish programmes (taught in Finnish) find their orientation programmes here: eLUT link

Orientation is compulsory for all new students! The orientation sessions, common to all programmes, are held on campus. Orientation can also be attended remote if an accepted prohibitive reason out of your control demands it, or if you are sick during the orientation, and you are not able to be on campus. However, on-site participation is strongly recommended. There is no possibility to attend the programme specific orientation sessions remotely.

Note! Orientation materials and videos are not a replacement for orientation, and students are still required to be present on campus for orientation days, but are there as additional support and to remind new students of information given in orientation.

Please, remember to complete the preparations on Checklist for New Degree Students.
