Help us celebrate the ideas, creativity, research and contributions of our engineering and computing alumni by nominating an outstanding graduate for an ANU Alumni Award.
The 2017 ANU Alumni Awards recognise alumni and students who have achieved extraordinary success in their fields or made remarkable contributions in Australia or internationally.
The Awards provide the College of Engineering and Computer Science with an opportunity to recognise the achievements of a diverse and growing alumni base.
“We know ourselves how wonderful our alumni are and some of the incredible things that they have done. It is important for us to celebrate, and make sure they are recognised for their work,” says Professor Elanor Huntington, Dean of the College.
Alumni from the College have been well-represented at the Awards in previous years.
In 2016, Bachelor of Engineering graduate Rebecca Watts was awarded Student of the Year (Undergraduate), for her work in humanitarian engineering, and to promoting female participation in the sector.
Other College recipients have included engineering PhD graduate Dr Lachlan Blackhall, Bachelor of Engineering graduate Huy Nguyen and Bachelor of Engineering graduate Danny Bishop.
