The UWA Business School congratulates all the winners of the Faculty Teaching and Research Awards.

At the awards ceremony, held on 31 March, seven Business School staff were recognised for excellence in teaching and over a dozen staff for excellence in research.

‘It is my pleasure to congratulate all staff who received a nomination for excellence in teaching in the various categories,' said Winthrop Professor Tracey Horton, Dean, UWA Business School. ‘The judging panel found the quality of applications to be of a very high standard and the task of choosing the winners was extremely difficult.

‘While the awards are an important acknowledgement of excellence in teaching and research, I would also like to recognise that we have many dedicated and excellent teachers and researchers in the School.'
