Established in 2005, our THE Awards series (or the 'Oscars of higher education' as it is now widely known) comprises landmark events in the higher education calendar. Judged by a panel of sector experts, they shine a light on the exceptional work taking place in higher education. Hundreds of institutions enter, and winners vary from world-renowned highly ranked institutions to those less well-known and operating in uniquely challenging circumstances, and every shape and size in between.
