This year's nominations for the Dean's Commendations for Excellent Teaching have been announced by the Faculty of Science.
Each semester the Faculty asks full-time students who achieved a GPA of 6.6 or greater in the previous semester to nominate their most effective teacher. These nominations allow us to celebrate the outstanding efforts of our staff to support students through effective teaching.
The Faculty received a total of 207 nominations across 99 teaching staff for Semester 1, 2020. The most nominated staff members are below.
On behalf of the Faculty, Executive Dean Professor Melissa Brown wishes to personally congratulate nominees and thank them for all they do throughout the year to ensure Faculty of Science students have the best quality of education.
