Students on the Move at Tampere Universities
Student on the Move program brings more physical activity into the daily life of universities. The program directly impacts the well-being of both students and staff.
Students on the Move project at Tampere Universities
The Students on the Move project was launched in August 2024. The project aims to make study and workdays more active, to pilot and integrate proven practices into the daily life of our higher education institutions, and to promote a comprehensive cultural shift in operations. The goal is to strengthen the perspective that students and staff at Tampere universities are encouraged and expected to take care of their own well-being.
The project is a joint initiative between TAMK and TAU, and it is also funded by the Ministry of Education and Culture. The project has been granted continuation funding for the period from August 1, 2025, to July 31, 2026.
