Award nominations open
All staff are invited to nominate colleagues for two internal awards - the Chancellor’s Awards and the Principal’s Medals.
Nominations for each award close in mid-April.
The Chancellor’s Awards
The Chancellor’s Awards were first awarded in 2003.
They acknowledge staff for outstanding contributions to both teaching, research and, new for this year, research impact.
The awards also offer the opportunity to honour colleagues who are at an early stage of their career and showing great potential.
Any member of the University community can nominate and self-nominations are permitted. Previous nominations may also be resubmitted.

The Principal’s Medal for Exceptional Service honours staff members or teams who have supported the University community and mission by delivering exceptional service beyond the expectations of their role.
The Principal’s Medal for Contribution to the Community recognises staff members or students who as individuals or groups have played a key role in a project that has made an impact to a community they have lived or worked in or contributed to.
