Association

As a member of the association you get into a network of former members of Kaplaaki and current professionals of industrial engineering and management which creates opportunities for networking and improving professional development. We arrange networking, educational and recreational events. The operations are managed by the board elected by the general meeting of the association. The greatest, most important and maybe the most traditional of the events is the Täyskymppi class meeting which is held in every autumn. It collects people to meet their old studying mates, to hear about the latest news of LUT and to hear about the current state of the university and teekkari culture.

To be eligible to join as a member you should have studied in Industrial Engineering and Management in Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology (or its predecessors), worked at LUT IEM or have other strong relation to the field.

To join you need to pay the joining fee which has been decided by the general meeting of the association to be 20 euros in 2024. Joining fee is paid via Holvi-webshop which you can reach through the navigation's Join as a member section.
