Thirty students were recognised for their outstanding academic performance at a ceremony at La Trobe’s Bundoora campus.
Professor Nick Bisley, Dean of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, congratulated the students and thanked the award sponsors for their generous contributions.
“The annual School prize-giving ceremony is one of the high points in the year. We are thrilled to celebrate our students’ success and extremely grateful for the support of the sponsors.”
“The ceremony allows us to connect with our intellectual community, our students and their families, colleagues, and supporters and reminds us all that we are part of something special!”
