Make A Scape Hackathon
Event Information
Description
Are you interested in:
Influencing the way Engineering is taught at University?
Using new and exciting technologies?
Networking with Students, Academics and Designers?
Pizza and Beer?
You are cordially invited to Think Up’s Make A Scape Hackathon at the FabLab!
In September 2015 with the backing of the Ove Arup foundation and the Institution of Structural Engineers Think Up brought out a structural engineering game called ‘Make A Scape’. The App uses a powerful physics engine to simulate the building of a structure.
During this hackathon, we are looking for students and academics to work together to find creative ways of using ‘Make a Scape’ in a university environment.
It will take place between 3pm and 8pm on 15th March at the FabLab, 1 Frederick's Place, London, EC2R 8AE, United Kingdom. Beer and Pizza will be provided!

Think Up is an education consultancy specialising in teaching design thinking to students and practising engineers. Think Up’s model for teaching design thinking dates back to the creation of the Creative Design course at Imperial College in 1999. Since then we have been developing our approach with UCL, Yale, and Cambridge universities; Expedition Engineering, Arup and, more recently, back at Imperial College.
