HIOP ry acts as trustee of the technology sector of the Hämeenlinna University Center and the Forssa campus and, if necessary, takes a position on questions concerning its membership. 

Hi  
I am a third-year civil and civil engineering engineering student. My free time is spent working with organizations, building the world, and sports. Here, in a few sentences, is a little insight into what kind of person I am. Best time to wake up: 05:00–06:00. The morning starts with a cup (read pot) of dark roasted coffee. Why buy something when you can make it yourself. Someone has built this, so yes, it can be repaired. Things tend to work themselves out. You shouldn't take life too seriously. 
If I happen to meet you on campus, feel free to come and chat. The best way to catch me is in education policy matters kopo.hiop@gmail.com. Otherwise, via the association's email or by calling from the campus. 

In 2024, the Engineers' Association aims to:

Let's lower the level higher

  • Competence differences grow during elementary school

  • Math skills are declining

  • Curricula and teaching culture do not take into account students' differences and differences in skills

  • The luma skills of those applying for studies should be taken into account in teacher trainingt

​

Passing and quality in the field of technology

  • High-quality technical know-how is necessary for the success of companies

  • Challenges in passing the engineering field

  • Guidance to be developed

  • The best way to increase the number of skilled people is by developing education

  • Resources should be set aside for filling the skill gaps in science and mathematics subjects

  • Funding to be withdrawn per degree

​

Possibilities for skill maintenance

  • Updating the employee's skills must be made part of everyday working life

  • The role of conversion training is growing and the distribution of funding is being developed

  • To enable continuous learning, a knowledge account system will be created, which will be funded by individuals, companies and the state

  • The number of short degrees and diploma courses will be increased

​

Versatile experts for the needs of working life

  • The special features of universities of applied sciences and universities in the higher education system will be preserved

  • For increasing the number of degrees, additional funding must be allocated to the basic funding of universities of applied sciences

  • The change in demand for engineers due to cyclical fluctuations is answered with conversion training

  • Completing 75 percent of the students within the target time, e.g. by increasing study guidance resources
