The U R Amazing Awards are your opportunity to reward and recognise the work done by staff at the University of Roehampton and RSU. If you know of any staff members that you would like to see rewarded for doing a great job, all you have to do is fill out the nomination form.
There are two categories for the U R Amazing Awards:
1. Academic staff
This could be your Academic Guidance Tutor, a lecturer, or another academic member of staff who has gone above and beyond in supporting you throughout your studies this year.
2. Non-academic / professional services staff
This award celebrates the non-academic staff who make your university experience outside of the classroom great! It can go to someone who has demonstrated exceptional assistance and positivity: staff that work in the library, colleges, student welfare, RSU, or in any other university departments.
