Abstract

The University of Aberdeen ‘Hack 2040’ Summer Ideathon allowed students to participate in a challenge-led ‘hackathon’-style event aimed at identifying ideas and creative thoughts linked to the Aberdeen 2040 strategic plan. Aberdeen 2040 was chosen as the focus for this event as many of our students are motivated and passionate about a wide variety of causes, many of which appear in the twenty commitments that form the plan. This virtual poster will highlight how this event had benefits for both the students involved and the institution, by allowing them to develop and work with the university to develop and inform strategy.
