Congratulations to The 2015 Sheffield Graduate Award Winners!

Warm congratulations are in order for our graduates – 11 this year! - namely, Keqa Alba (BA Hons in Business Studies), Neagu Laura Claudia (BA Hons in Business Studies), Papadopoulou Sofia (BSc Hons in Psychology), Trasanidis Charalampos (MSc in Management), Salvari Vasilki (BSc Hons in Psychology), Gavri Maria (BSc Hons in Psychology), Kristina Karatoli (BSc Hons in Psychology), Agushi Genc (BSc Hons in Computer Science), Barbu Miruna Karmen (BSc Hons in Psychology), Dermentzopoulos Apostolos (BA Hons in Business Studies), Ntotsi Paraskevi (BSc Hons in Psychology) who are this year’s Sheffield Graduate Award winners.

To meet the award criteria students worked in parallel to their studies, undertook extracurricular initiatives and expanded their skills and knowledge by getting involved in a variety of valuable activities. Indicatively, some of the activities they participated in involved: charity initiatives and community volunteering, the Annual Students’ Spring Symposium, the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and other initiatives and events of the International Faculty. They also presented substantial work experience and worked on various international projects while some of the winners acted during their studies as class representatives.

Upon the completion of their studies they managed to accumulate the number of hours necessary for the Sheffield Graduate Award.

The University of Sheffield introduced this award wishing to produce graduates with distinctive qualities that every typical Sheffield graduate should have, such as drive for personal growth and self - improvement, enterprise and life skills development. This prestigious award brings an extra dimension to their qualifications, enriching their personal development and substantially boosting their career prospects.

Once again, congratulations to our students on their achievement!
