Minna teaches on a range of modules contributing to our Philosophy and Religion degree including issues of equality and diversity (especially feminism, gender and sexuality), and religion and social sciences.
The Senate award panel noted Minna's commitment to inclusivity, interdisciplinarity, and research-led collaborations and that her impact has extended beyond the classroom into the Faculty, the institution and has been recognised nationally.
They said Minna is "clearly an excellent, ground-breaking teacher who has managed to inspire and bring together students and teachers from a wide diversity of programmes in a truly interdisciplinary module, which is changing perspectives and informing scholarship."
"The design of the LGBT* studies module is an exemplar of how to draw on expertise from across the institution and to involve students in the design of the curriculum; its value in providing a space for exploration of the issues it covers is similarly worthy and an asset to the institution."
Many congratulations to Minna on this highly prestigious award.
Minna also recently won the Liberation and Diversity Award at the recent Sheffield Students' Union Academic Awards.
