Academic, research and professional staff who have made outstanding contributions to the Faculty and wider university have been recognised at the 2017 Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences Awards.
Excellence in leadership, service and innovation was rewarded with monetary awards for professional staff and tutors, and project funds for academic staff.
The ceremony was presented by Faculty Executive Dean Professor Bruce Abernethy, Associate Dean (Research) Professor Christina Lee, Associate Dean (Academic) Professor Sarah Roberts-Thomson and Faculty Executive Manager, Tricia Williams.
“The strength of our Faculty is reflected by our hard-working and dedicated staff,” Professor Abernethy said.
“This is a fantastic opportunity to recognise our stellar staff who are working across diverse roles and the impact they are having on the operational and strategic endeavours of the university.
“I can see why the judging panel found it difficult to choose a recipient for each category as there was such a high calibre of nominations this year.
“Congratulations to each nominee and award recipient who are all highly deserving winners.”
This year the Faculty celebrated the accomplishments of staff in three categories: Teaching and Learning, Research, and Professional Staff.
