MVLS Engagement Awards 2019

The MVLS Engagement Awards 2019 open on Monday 19 August. Supported by the Wellcome Institutional Strategic Support Fund, these award recognise and reward the inspiring people and projects sharing our research with those outside the University.

This year’s award will be MVLS Award for Public Engagement with Research and winner nominations will receive a £300 gift voucher (or larger sum towards future engagement activities). We want to highlight engagement with MVLS research that is well designed and implemented, and makes a positive difference. Staff and students are invited to nominate themselves or colleagues.

For details, case studies of past winners and online submission: MVLS Engagement Awards 2019. Applications close on Friday 25 October 2019 and winners will be announced at MVLS Christmas Council in December. For enquiries about eligibility, please contact the MVLS Engagement Team.
