We were pleased to be able to hold an awards ceremony for our deserving TAs as we do not often show our appreciation for their hard work and immense contribution to teaching and learning in the department and we would like thank them all for their hard work and incredible effort; we are truly grateful for all that you do.

•   Teaching on a 3rd year UG module x 2

•   New TA (first year teaching in our department) x 1
•   Graduating TA (finishing PhD and taking up an academic post and/or no longer teaching)
