Contract Type FiledAugust 16th, 2018This document is the University of Aberdeen Outcome Agreement for 2018/19; an annual update, which forms part of its three year Agreement published in 2017 (available here). The document is structured to align with the University’s own Strategic Plan (2015-20), available here, and it systematically addresses the areas of strategic importance identified by the Scottish Government for prioritisation and enhanced focus via the SFC guidance for 2018/19 to 2020/21 (SFC/GD/20/2017), under the ethos of intensification. These include widening access, articulation, gender and addressing skills shortages in the economy, among others. The document sets out what targets the University has in place against all key priority areas to help underpin delivery of collective targets at national level, in line with Government expectations. It then outlines, for each area, what steps are being taken by the institution, both strategically and operationally, to deliver on targets set.
