About us

Tombolo ry is the student organization looking after the interests of UEF geography, human geography and environmental policy students in Joensuu.  Tombolo was founded in 2015, and in addition to looking after our members’ interest we organize various events and activities. In public we can be recognized by our bright green student overalls and our sympathetic signature penguin mascot.

Tombolo Events

We do not collect membership fees from exchange students studying at our department, so all our events are open to you regardless! Our annual events include a hiking trip, a Halloween party and a beer pong tournament, among others. Feel free to join our closed Facebook group from this link to stay up-to-date on our future events!
