The 2024 Trinity Excellence in Teaching Awards and School Awards for Teaching Excellence took place at a special ceremony in the Provost’s House on Monday 25 June. 

Nominated by students, staff and alumni for their outstanding contribution to teaching in the university this year, the winners were selected by School-based panels and announced by Provost Linda Doyle who applauded their commitment to teaching.

Provost Linda Doyle said: “Each of us will remember a teacher or lecturer who inspired us to think differently or encouraged us to do things we thought were beyond our reach. The Trinity Excellence in Teaching Awards recognise those who go above and beyond in their teaching and I am very proud of this year’s recipients. They are all hugely dedicated to their students, innovative in and outside the lecture theatre, and incredibly inspiring.”
