Many other colleagues in the Faculty were nominated for Vice-Chancellor's awards which promote and celebrate good practice and raise the status of teaching and learning as a scholarly and inspirational activity.
Professor Susan Fitzmaurice, Vice-President for Arts and Humanities at the University of Sheffield, said, "Across the Faculty we have so many examples of innovative teaching, supportive approaches and examples of excellent practice. It is wonderful that so many staff have been recognised for their work with these awards but it is also an opportunity to thank all of you involved in learning and teaching for working hard to give our students a great educational experience."
