The MDXSU Awards are our way of celebrating the amazing students at Middlesex, and recognising their impact and achievements over the past academic year.

 

The winners will be announced at this year's awards ceremony in central London at the end of April, with all shortlisted students invited to attend an evening of fine dining and celebrations in central London.

 

Nominations are open now for students, staff and external partners to show their appreciation for students in the following categories. Nominations close on Wednesday 3 April.

 

Community Contribution Award

This award recognises students and student groups who have made a positive contribution to either a specific community on campus, the wider MDX community or the local community. This might include: 

  • Organising an event or activity for student communities who can find it more difficult to engage in campus life (such as mature students, student parents, student carers, commuters and postgraduates) 
  • Organising an event or activity for groups who face oppression or discrimination (such as our liberation groups: BAME students, LGBT+ students, disabled students, women students) 
  • Having a positive influence on the local community – such as volunteering, fundraising, campaigning or supporting local organisations (such as through a Community Placement) 

The above list is not extensive and we would love to hear about all inclusionary work or activity that has taken place!
