The THE Awards enter their third decade at a challenging time for higher education, not just in the UK and Ireland – where our main focus lies – but across the globe.

But if anything, it’s even more important in such times to celebrate and promote the very best work taking place, some of which may otherwise go unrecognised or underappreciated.

We are looking for work that exemplifies clarity of vision, the innovative delivery of teaching, research and administration, and even, when required, displays of expert strategising and rebuilding. So put the word out and ask colleagues across your institution to tell you about their proudest achievements during the 2023-24 academic year – we want to hear about them all, and then publicise the very best stories as widely as possible.

We are thrilled that this year’s ceremony will take place at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre on Thursday 13 November. Check the footer for the rest of this year’s key dates.

Please note that we are charging for entries this year. The reasons for bringing in this charge, and advice on how you can ensure your institution pays the minimum amount, can be found here.
