Student Award - entries now invited

The Engineering Subject Centre is offering a £250 prize to the UK undergraduate engineering student who writes the best essay (around 1000 words) telling them 'what makes a good Engineering lecturer.' The deadline for entries is 28 March 2008.

The aim of this competition is to highlight good practice in this area and to motivate students to think about how they learn. Once they have written their essay all they have to do is submit their entry via email to enquiries@engsc.ac.uk. All shortlisted entries will be published on the ESC website and the winner will be presented with their prize of £250 at the Higher Education Academy's national conference in July 2008.

Publicity material in the form of posters and postcards will be sent out to Departmental Contacts shortly but in the meantime you can visit the web page for more information and advice on promoting the scheme to your students at:
