Student-Led Teaching Awards 2024: The Results
As we rolled into 2024, we asked Students about the staff at the University that had made their Student Experience at Middlesex - from their employability to their feedback, to the teachers who were innovating, to the professional services staff supporting students.
We found the massive impact that staff had on student journeys. We received an incredible 592 nominations across the University from students telling us about the incredible staff that we are lucky to have at MDX. We had 14 categories that staff was nominated in and a couple of weeks ago we announced the shortlisted staff for the Student-Led Teaching Awards 2024.
Both students and staff were invited to tonight's award ceremony hosted collaboratively by Middlesex University and the Student’s Union, where staff members were recognised for the tremendous hard work, they have conducted over the last couple of years.
