Vice Chancellor's Awards

Each year Anglia Ruskin University publicly celebrates and rewards outstanding contributions made to the achievement of our ambitions. 

If you’ve demonstrated a positive attitude and done something which is ambitious, imaginative and collaborative, we want to hear all about it. 

We encourage nominations from individuals and teams whose work might not be as visible as others, but whose contribution is nonetheless essential to our success. 
We can award up to 8 awards each year, with a monetary value of £2000* each. The award may be take in cash** or used (subject to agreement) to purchase equipment, make charitable donations, etc. Successful nominees will also receive an invitation to a prestigious event to celebrate their achievement where they will be presented with a framed certificate and a lapel pin. 

* At its discretion, the panel may award more money to a successful team.
** Money taken in cash will be subject to tax and national insurance contributions.
