AaltoSDG is a mobile application designed to inspire Aalto University students, employees and partners to make more sustainable choices every day. The pilot application provides insight into the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and helps you learn how you can contribute to reaching those goals.
At the same time, the application demonstrates how Aalto University research, teaching and events can support international work to achieve sustainable development goals at the local level. The application presents monthly challenges to the user based on the SDG themes. Throughout the month, themes that change at the same time highlight Aalto's research and researchers.
The application is not finalised yet and will be actively developed throughout 2020. Aalto community is encouraged to participate in the development by giving feedback, which can be done directly in the application. It is possible to use the application without logging in or logging in with Aalto login details. It is possible to store and transfer logged-in user information between different devices. However, the data can't be transferred between devices, for example, when switching phones without logging in.
Please read the application’s terms and conditions.

The new polyteekkari flag finally raised in Otaniemi
The 15-year wait of the Otaniemi teekkari community was rewarded in early November, when the community ceremonially introduced the new polyteekkari flag at the 153rd Teekkari Tradition Ball. The previous flag that had united the teekkaris of Otaniemi was the flag of the Student Union of the Helsinki University of Technology, which served the community from 1909 to 2009 and was laid to its well-earned rest with the founding of the Aalto University Student Union. This is how the new flag came into being.
