​A distinguishing feature of institutions with an ethos of excellence is that they offer various levels and forms of recognition for excellent performance. SU does this by means of, among others, our annual Chancellor's Awards for personnel. 

These prestige awards recognise staff whose careers attest to sustained excellence in research, innovation, learning and teaching, social impact and professional services. Congratulations to the recipients for 2019! They will be receiving their awards at our graduation ceremonies from 9 to 13 December.
