Postgraduate Teaching Awards

Trinity Teaching Awards for Postgraduate Students recognise the outstanding commitment of Trinity's postgraduate teaching assistants to achieving excellence in teaching and learning. 

To recognise the substantial contribution that Trinity's postgraduate research students make to undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and learning, the Graduate Studies Office administers the annual Trinity Teaching Award for Postgraduate Students.

Schools may nominate up to 3 postgraduate students for consideration by the selection panel, which is chaired by the Dean of Graduate Studies and has cross-Faculty and student representation.

The call for nominations was issued to Schools in November 2023. Following a selection process, the Dean of Graduate Studies will announce the joint winners in May 2024 followed by a ceremony to congratulate the winners and nominees.

The panel selected the following as joint winners in 2022/23:

Claire Poynton-Smith, Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences

Céline Thobois, Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences

Monika Pilch, Faculty of Health Sciences
