25th September 2024
With the beginning of Michaelmas term fast approaching, we’re reflecting on all that our students achieved during the 2023-2024 academic year. As exam results came in over the summer, we were delighted to hear that several of our students have been awarded departmental and university prizes for their academic performance.
Those recognised included Temitayo Bandele, who won the Gibbs Prize for best overall performance in Fine Art across all aspects of the Final Honours School and Sarah Arnold, who achieved the second-best performance in Law across the whole university (and the highest aggregate marks of the year) and came top of her cohort for Jurisprudence, along with being awarded several other prizes. Graduate student Yuhang Wei was awarded the Mathematical Sciences Dissertation Prize.
