Campus: What makes an award winning academic, university or project?

Campus by Times Higher Education

Learn from the winners in three very different THE Award categories how they developed the strategies and projects that saw them take home a trophy in 2023 – and how these have evolved in the 12 months since.

We speak to:

• Roderick Watkins, vice-chancellor of Anglia Ruskin University, which was named 2023 THE University of the Year
• Mark Brown, a professor in evolutionary ecology and conservation at Royal Holloway, University of London, who won Outstanding Research Supervisor of the Year
• Joanne Pledger, a senior lecturer in astrophysics, and Ruth Spencer, a senior lecturer in dance, both at the University of Central Lancashire who, with colleagues, worked on the Into Our Skies: Space in Schools project, which took home the award for widening participation or outreach initiative.
