Student Union JAMKO
The Student Union on Jamk University of Applied Sciences JAMKO is the statutory guardian and service provider of Jamk's students. Master’s degree students can also join the student union and receive an official student card.
The membership of the student union offers its members all national and local benefits, diverse leisure opportunities, events and trips, as well as JAMKO's own, low-cost café services. With a valid student card, you get student discounts on even unexpected everyday expenses, such as various services and hobbies, from VR and in bus traffic and restaurants. Members can supplement the benefits of the physical student card with a digital student card through a smartphone.
You become a member electronically through JAMKO's website.

Main Campus, Rajakatu 35, F-wing (room FP23).
JAMKO membership is the key to all student benefits
By becoming a member of the student union, you will receive an official student card, which proves that you are a student at the University of Applied Sciences. As a member of JAMKO, you get both national and locally negotiated student benefits such as student-priced lunch and other discounts in restaurants, travel benefits on National Railway (VR) and long-distance bus transport. Local bebefits include a free gym on the main campus, cheaper events and trips to Lapland and Lofoten organized by the student union, and much more.
You can also activate the plastic student card as a library card in Jamk's libraries. You can choose either a traditional plastic student card, or use JAMKO's digital student card through Pivo, which expands the benefits of membership even further.
How can I get a student card?
The student card granted by JAMKO is available to degree students who are enrolled as attending students at Jamk UAS and have joined members of JAMKO. Also international exchange students are entitled to the card. Membership is valid for one academic year or semester at a time. After the membership expires, it can be renewed for a new term via JAMKO’s website. The plastic student card does not need to be ordered separately each term, but its validity is updated with a membership sticker attached to it at the beginning of each new term.
You can join as a member via JAMKO’s website. You are welcome to visit our office or the pop – up membership service points on each campus if you have any questions
You can find detailed instructions and membership prices on JAMKO's website.
