The Student Union of Hanken (SHS, short for Svenska Handelhögskolans Studentkår) is a separate organisation and is not a part of the university. The Student Union's main functions are to look after the interest of its members, to work as a link between its members and the university, to provide services and to organize social activities. Hanken's Vaasa location has its own student association serving students in Vaasa. For information on the Hanken Student Union, please visit www.shs.fi/en Opens in new window .
