ABOUT US

about us

Britannica is mainly the association for students of English Language and Literature at the Faculty of Humanities at Åbo Akademi University, although everyone who feels English-minded in any way is most welcome to join our association! We organize everything from traditional student parties (a.k.a. sitzes) to movie nights and sports events. We should also mention our traditional department-get-togethers, during which students and staff meet up for some wine, cheese and snacks; and our pub quizzes, which are famous also outside the English Department. A newer tradition is our get-togethers/board game nights/sewing nights in our cozy students' lounge in the English corridor in Arken.

Sounds good, ay? Then why not join our association! Look below at "Become a member" to find out about the membership fee, how to pay it and what benefits you get from being a member. And even if you don't feel like joining Britannica at this point, you are still most welcome to come and hang out with us - we hope to see you at one of our events soon! :)

Since 1973
