This year, almost 300 nominations were received for fifteen awards, which include Lecturer of the Year, Support / Service Staff Member of the Year, Personal Tutor of the Year, Innovative Teaching Award and Department of the Year.

The winners will be announced at a celebration evening at the Great Hall in Aberystwyth Arts Centre on Tuesday 2 April.
