The Teaching Action of the Year
to acknowledge and promote high quality teaching and actions, that positively affect students' learning, welfare, satisfaction and study success and development of attractive teaching programs. The recognition can be given to an individual or a group of people among the faculty, learning services and students.  The final decision of the award will be made by the Vice Dean responsible for Teaching on the proposal of a working group from the Degree Program Committee.

The Research Action of the Year
to acknowledge exceptionally high quality, impact, and diversity in research. It has been shown that science, and research results benefit greatly from a community that approaches challenges and research questions in various and creative ways. A diverse research group or approach is more capable to generate new research methods, explanations, and ideas, which can lead more innovative solutions. Therefore, in this year we also highlight actions and efforts to increase diversity in research, or demonstrated benefits of diversity in the generated research results and innovations. The final decision of the award will be made by the Vice Dean responsible for Research on the proposal of the Scientific Publication Committee.
