We are particularly grateful to the Warwick International Higher Education Academy for sponsoring a one-off sixth WATE commendee this year.

This year saw the highest ever response by members of the Warwick community for the Awards. Over 80 staff colleagues and 40 postgraduate tutors nominated by nearly 400 students and staff. Nominees came from 27 departments and centres across the University and nearly three out of four nominations came directly from or were co-supported by students.
