Doctoral Recognition Awards
The Doctoral Recognition Awards recognise the contributions and efforts that students and staff have taken to enhance the experience for doctoral researchers and doctoral education at the University of Bath. Some of the contributions that have been recognised include doctoral students taking the lead on community building activities, representing their peers and influencing change within the university and exceptional support for doctoral students.
Those who were highly-commended received the highest form of recognition and will be awarded a small trophy, signed letter of appreciation and will be able to use a digital badge.
Commenting on the awards, Prof Jeremy Bradshaw, Pro-Vice Chancellor (International and Doctoral) said:
These awards recognise the doctoral students and staff members who have gone the extra mile (or several) to enhance our doctoral community.

Excellence in Doctoral Supervision Prize
The Excellence in Doctoral Supervision Prize recognises exceptional performance and conduct in the supervision of doctoral students of all kinds. The University expects that an excellent supervisor or supervisory team demonstrate an enthusiasm for supporting their research students through to the completion of their thesis, examination and publication of their work. They should be able to establish good working relationships and encourage their students to disseminate their work, as well as support their professional development. They should be seen to act as a role model for their students and colleagues.
Award winner 2020: Prof Danae Stanton-Fraser, Department of Psychology
Prof Stanton-Fraser was commended for her role as an accomplished researcher and a dedicated supervisor, offering exemplary support to her students throughout their doctorate journey. Her ambitious approach to supervision is founded on interdisciplinarity, high quality research and the dissemination of that research through public engagement activities.
