Excellent news for Chris Featherstone

Several members of the Department of Politics and International Relations received nominations in this year's student nominated YUSU Excellence Awards.

These awards give students the opportunity to show their appreciation to staff across the University, and thank them for their hard work. It is a student-led celebration and one which allows students to recognise those who have  had a particularly positive impact on them over the past academic year, whether they are academic or non-academic staff members.

Congratulations to all those nominated and especially to Chris Featherstone who won the award for Teacher of the Year.
