It is in this environment where impact is being made and contributed euros are best spent.</p> <p>Our students and researchers are building the world’s smallest radar satellites, redefining the boundaries of possibilities for biomaterials, revolutionising sustainable fashion, developing health-promoting technology, and finding ways to feed more people with fewer resources.</p> <p>Companies founded by our alumni already employ over 30.000 people.

We encourage our different fields of study to commingle and to collaborate. We inspire creativity.</p> <p>Reading textbooks teaches the standard models of things, but when more is needed, that is where creativity and collaboration come in. Creative thinking and operation models push us to progress even through the occasional stalemates: because there is no single specific goal, there are always multiple directions to move in. </p> <p>However, change doesn’t happen alone through multidisciplinary collaboration. More and more often, breakthroughs are driven by international teams. Aalto students currently represent 117 nationalities, and half of our research and teaching staff have come to Aalto from outside Finland. Our alumni are working and making an impact in over 100 countries around the world. Aalto has quickly become Finland’s most international university.</p> <p>Diversity is an opportunity and a resource. At Aalto, we celebrate voices from different academic fields and cultural backgrounds coming together with unique ideas and creative solutions. We truly believe Finland’s long-term success relies on research and innovation – and integrating international talent.</p> <p>Half of Aalto’s international graduates are employed in Finland one year after graduation. This is a testament to Aalto’s role in internationalising Finland. While we are happy about the progress, we still have work to do – and we need your help.</p></div> </div> </div> </section> </div> <div class="aalto-component-wrapper aalto-component aalto-component-wrapper--slider" lang="en" style=""> <section class="splide aalto-slider aalto-slider--large " id="1160986" aria-labelledby="slider-title-id-2057013922"> <div class="aalto-slider__header"> <h2 id="slider-title-id-2057013922"> Donate and receive a lapel pin symbolising collaboration </h2> <div class="aalto-user-generated-content"><p>At Aalto, when people from different fields come together, share their knowledge and ask questions, we get ideas for disruptive innovation, thrilling beginnings, and unprecedented ways to apply existing technology. </p> <p>This lapel pin embodies such collaboration.
