Dr James Fenwick awarded one of four Inspirational Research Supervisor Awards

Dr James Fenwick

Earlier this year, students were asked to nominate academic or student support staff who had inspired them or had a transformative impact on their student experience, inside or outside the curriculum. Students were asked through the Postgraduate Research Experience Survey (PRES) to nominate research staff who had inspired them and provided exceptional research supervision and/or support. A total of 150 staff nominations were considered by a University panel, where four Inspirational Research Supervisor Awards were made.

Dr James Fenwick is one of these four, and our Inspirational Research Supervisor Award Winner 2022 in the Culture & Creativity Research Institute! Congratulations to James and all of the nominees and winners of the awards, showing the breadth of inspiring, transformational and supportive staff at Sheffield Hallam University.
