Welcome to Bioner’s Alumni Section! 

Bioner’s alumnis are an important part of the biotechnology community. We aim to maintain and strengthen connections between former, current, and future biotechnology professionals by providing opportunities for networking, sharing experiences, and contributing to the development of our community long after graduation. 

In January 2026, Bioner’s official alumni association, Tampereen Bioteekkarialumnit ry, was established. The association brings together Bioner’s alumnis and is responsible for organizing alumni activities. It arranges events, maintains the alumni network, and serves as a link between different generations of biotechnology students and graduates. 

Events organized by the association include alumni afterwork gatherings, the annual alumni Wappu lunch, and various networking and social events. In addition, the association provides a platform for alumnis to stay connected, exchange experiences, and build professional and personal relationships. 

Through the alumni association, the Bioner Guild continues to stay in touch with its alumnis and invites them to participate in events such as Bioner’s anniversary gala, sitsis (academic dinner parties), and other activities that are meaningful to the community. Alumni participation in study- and career-related events is also highly valued, as graduates can share their experiences with current students and offer valuable insights into working life and career development. 

Both alumni and current students are welcome to join Tampereen Bioteekkarialumnit ry. The membership options are: 

Full Member (Lifetime Membership): €30 

Supporting Member (Annual Membership): €10 

Student Member (Annual Membership): Free of charge 

Although the one-time fee for full membership is slightly higher at €30, it is a lifetime membership, meaning the fee is paid only once. Full members are, however, asked to update their contact information annually to help maintain the membership register. 

Join Tampereen Bioteekkarialumnit ry here! 

Your connection with Bioner does not end at graduation, it simply takes on a new form. Through the alumni association, you can stay connected with friends from your student years, get to know biotechnology graduates from different generations, and remain an active part of a community that continues to grow well beyond graduation. 

We warmly welcome all alumni to join us in shaping the activities and future of Tampereen Bioteekkarialumnit ry!
