Retikka ry is the student organization for Clinical Nutrition students at the University of Eastern Finland. Since 1984, Retikka has united the nutrition students at the University of Eastern Finland, cared for the rights and well-being of its members, and improved students’ contacts with working life.
Retikka organizes various kinds of events that provide great opportunities to meet local nutrition students and learn more about Finnish student culture. These gatherings bring together Finnish and international students, allowing them to connect, share experiences, and explore Finnish traditions. These events are especially great for exchange students who want to get to know their fellow Finnish students.
Another great way to meet other nutrition students is to visit Retikka’s own “living room” in Canthia. You’re more than welcome to drop by if you’re in the mood for a chat, a cup of coffee or just a chill-out in a comfortable environment! The room is located on the first floor in the basement of Canthia. If you have trouble finding it, you can contact our international coordinator at all times! Also check out our online shop selection for canvas bags and overall patches by following the links above (Toiminta > Haalarimerkit ja muut tuotteet > Verkkokaupastamme).
The international coordinator of Retikka in 2025 is Ida Mustonen (mustoida(at)student.uef.fi). If you want to hear more about Retikka or have any questions, she will be happy to help you!
