About Us

Kirunasektionen is a fully student driven non-profit association under the student union of technology, Teknologkåren, at Luleå University of Technology (LTU).


We are staffed by volunteering students who are democratically elected every year during the annual meeting in February or March. Our board includes a president, a treasurer, a vice president, an education coordinator,  a board member, a union council representative of Teknologkåren, an info/PR manager,  and a representative of each subassociation under us.


Our main objective is to support the students of Kiruna Space Campus and do our best to make the time you spend in Kiruna the best it can be.

Education Monitoring For Your Best

Kirunasektionen handles educational matters through quality of life changes, complaints and gathering of feedback from courses, lectures and entire programmes. If there are any issues, errors, or conflicts regarding examination, assignments or even course lecturers, these matters can be handled by us. Tickets about such matters can be submitted through LTU's student unions' reporting system.

Once a year, space related companies are invited to meet and connect with students here in Kiruna at LiftOff; the place where education and opportunity meet.

GSO

The Giron Space Organisation is the association of the student engineering projects in Kiruna. They manage collaboration between projects, organise sponsorships, take care of projects' public relations, and a lot more.

SLUSK

The one and only meeting place and student pub for students in Kiruna: SLUSK. Ranging from regular parties, pub evenings, boardgame nights, and larger ensembles.
