CUSU Teaching Awards 2016 – The Winners
Now in their third year, the CUSU Student-Led Teaching Awards are a unique opportunity for students to recognise the exceptional contribution those who teach and support them have made to their education. The Awards are organised by CUSU, and any student at Cambridge is able to nominate. The judging of the Awards is carried out by a panel of students.
This year just over 700 nominations were received, making the task of choosing the eventual winners even more difficult than ever. The Awards and Commendations will be presented at a ceremony on Thursday 5th May, at which students and staff will celebrate the excellent teaching and student support which takes place everyday across the Collegiate University.
Congratulations to all winners, and thank you to all those who made nominations.
