Faculty of Natural Sciences Prizes for Excellence 2017: winners announced!

The Faculty Prizes for Excellence are organised by the Education Committee and are designed to recognise individuals who have made a major contribution to teaching and learning, or to health and safety within the Faculty of Natural Sciences.

The Faculty strives to provide a safe and academically stimulating environment in which research and teaching can flourish. These awards therefore allow us to celebrate some of the many outstanding individuals within the faculty who have gone that extra mile to enrich the experience of our students in their development as leading scientists of the future.

The prizes are made in 3 categories:

Excellence in Teaching and Learning, including: lecturing; laboratory demonstrating; academic tutoring; personal tutoring; and introducing new teaching programs, methods and projects.

Excellence in the Support of Teaching and Learning, in the context of Departmental and Faculty teaching and learning activities including: laboratory class demonstrating; running workshops; academic tutoring; academic teaching administration and student support; and technical support of lectures and laboratories.

Excellence in Health and Safety, these awards are given in recognition of excellence in promoting and implementing safe practices in the Faculty. The prizes fall into four categories: academic staff; support staff; Post-Docs; and students.

The award winners in all categories are those judged to have been most outstanding in their contribution to the teaching and learning experience, or to the promotion of health and safety this year.
