The perfect study-fun-balance.
Your grit:lab journey will be exciting, challenging and intense. Our activities are specifically designed to help you plan ahead, refocus and bring out your inner creativity.
01 Networking meetups
The networking meetups with our partner businesses will help you take ownership of your career and empower you to start building a career network that will last you a lifetime. Connect with your future teammates and get a glimpse into the growing Åland tech scene – this is your opportunity to truly immerse yourself in the different fields of development and tech.
02 Hackathons
During your two years at grit:lab, we’ll organize hackathons and coding challenges where you’ll get to flex your creative muscles and work on solving real-world problems together with your peers. Learn how to put your unique skills and abilities to good use and discover how to make a real difference – with code.
03 Outdoor experiences
In close collaboration with our partner network, we’ll organise outdoor events during your studies at grit:lab. You’ll explore the awe-inspiring, untouched Åland nature, discover our best-hidden cultural gems and experience a lifestyle that hits the sweet spot between fast-paced tech and peaceful relaxation.
Accommodation
During the Piscine phase, you’ll be sharing a room completely free of charge with one other grit:lab student at the Strandnäs Hotel, located just 1 km from the grit:lab campus.
