The work of 27 AUB students has been recognised through this year’s AUB Charitable Foundation, which awards outstanding students based on work developed during their studies at AUB.
Due to COVID-19, AUB’s graduation ceremonies were cancelled earlier this year, but all 15 Charitable Foundation prizes, usually presented at the annual event, have now been awarded to recipients. The wins highlight work from across AUB’s Graduate School, School of Art Design and Architecture and School of Media and Performance.
AUB Vice Chancellor Professor Paul Gough said: “We’re so pleased to again be able to celebrate the work of our outstanding students through our Charitable Foundation Awards. This year has been especially challenging for all of our students, but not least those who have graduated in 2020.
“Given Graduation’s postponement, it's perhaps especially important to celebrate and highlight these wins this year. Awards like The Mike Davis Award for Architectural Study, Robin and Lucienne Foundation and AUB Textiles Prize, and The Ossie Morris Prize for Cinematography are held in such high regard, both locally and internationally.”
He added: “These wins further demonstrate the creative and technical prowess of our graduates who go on to forge very strong careers and work in some brilliantly vibrant roles across the creative industries – congratulations to all of our prize winners, and grateful thanks to our many sponsors, who make these awards possible.”
