Student Awards and Achievements

 

Staff and students are recognised through a number of prestigious awards during the year. These awards recognise the quality in our teaching and training courses, and are awarded externally by government or industry-based associations. They help us celebrate the accomplishments of teams and individuals who make up the Box Hill Institute community. They also recognise the value and contribution made by our students and alumni in a range of different industries.

 

One of the Institute’s goals is to provide an environment which encourages and develops the leaders of tomorrow. Our Student of the Year Awards Program helps to recognise students who have shown outstanding achievement in their area of study. Achievements in these Awards are recognised by industry and help to propel students’ career and employment prospects. For a list of awards won by the Institute, visit the Institue Awards and Achievements page.
