Vice-Chancellor's Awards 2020

Seven award winners and four commendation winners were originally announced in June highlighting achievements such as bringing science to life for children with visual impairments, developing business ideas to solve climate change, and saving the life of a student who fell ill with meningitis.

It was hoped a formal awards ceremony would be held later in the year, but as that was not possible during the pandemic, a virtual event was held instead with around 70 guests.
