Learning & Teaching Awards 2024 Shortlist

Congratulations to those staff & student reps shortlisted for the Learning & Teaching Awards! Showcasing best practices at Ulster University through student nominations.

The UUSU Learning & Teaching Awards aim to recognise and celebrate our outstanding staff and academic reps across a range of categories supporting the student journey at Ulster University. 

What makes these awards stand out is they are completely student-led, organised, and managed through Ulster University Students’ Union.  Nominations come from students, with staff only eligible to submit in the Academic Rep category.

We received over 500 nominations this year showing the impact of hundreds of individual staff members, teams and reps. The judging and shortlisting panel was made up of student reps from across Faculties and the Doctoral College.
