MDXSU Awards 2017: The Shortlist
Middlesex Students' Union are excited to announce which MDX students have been shortlisted for an MDXSU Award.
The annual MDXSU Awards are our way of recognising the hard work and achievements of Middlesex students over the past year, and celebrating those who have been an outstanding contribution to campus life, or in their local community.
The shortlist is based on hundreds of nominations from Middlesex University students and staff, who nominated students in ten award categories, from events and societies, to Student Voice Leaders and volunteers. There are also three awards for internal MDXSU staff.
Nominations closed on Friday 14th April 2017, after which our panels of elected Student Officers and MDXSU staff had the difficult task of creating the final shortlists based on your submissions. You can read the final shortlist for all of the awards below.
The winners will be announced at the awards ceremony on Thursday 11th May, with all shortlisted students invited for a celebratory night of fine-dining, entertainment and the all-important results!
The winners, alongside photos from the night, will be announced on our website and Facebook shortly after the awards ceremony - or you can follow along live on the night on the MDXSU Twitter feed or the #MDXSUAwards hashtag.
