Shortlists and Winners – 2019

We had over 50 nominations with almost all universities represented. It’s was the first time we have run the awards and we appreciate spring is a busy time of the year, as a result we have been really amazed at both the level and quality of nominations received.  We would like to thank everyone who took the time to put together a nomination and also our shortlisting panel.

The Shortlisted nominations were judged by our panels and the results were announced on Saturday, June the 15th, 2019.
