Student Excellence Awards
In 2020 we launched our Student Excellence Awards, honouring achievement among our postgraduate and undergraduate student cohorts. For each of the categories below, the student with the highest weighted average mean (WAM) score receives an award and prize, and is recognised at an official ceremony.
I’ve always been interested in public health research, and this Honours year provided a valuable opportunity to participate in a research project that’s led to a journal submission. Along the way I’ve gained confidence in transferable career skills like organisation, teamwork and communication; I’ve also learnt specific research skills including critical analysis, study design and data analysis. The year was a fantastic opportunity to gauge my long-term interest in research and establish important networks, in a supportive and encouraging environment.
