The Ethical Grand Challenges are interactive online and face-to-face activities that take place in each year of your study and give you the tools you need to become a more socially responsible graduate. You will learn to create a more sustainable world, tackle social injustices and navigate ethical dilemmas in the workplace.
Completion of two of three challenges also counts towards the Stellify Award for both undergraduate and Masters students.
Year 1 undergraduate students: Sustainability Challenge available in Blackboard until 23:59 on Tuesday 3 June 2025 (This Challenge will not be available from 2025/26 onwards)
Year 2 undergraduate students: Social Justice Challenge available in Blackboard until 23:59 on Tuesday 3 June 2025
Year 3 undergraduate students: Workplace Ethics Challenge available in Blackboard until 23:59 on Tuesday 3 June 2025
Final year undergraduate students: You can catch up on the Challenges you've missed. Sign up to the Sustainability Challenge, the Social Justice Challenge or the Workplace Ethics Challenge.
Please email egc@manchester.ac.uk urgently if you are unable to access the Challenges.
If you attend a face-to-face workshop as part of the challenge, you need to sign the register on the day to prove that you attended. If you complete the online challenge in Blackboard, your participation will be verified by a short multiple choice quiz or series of tasks in Blackboard.
