University of York Students Union (YUSU) Supervisor of the Year Award 2012

Posted on 29 June 2012

Anne Phillips, Senior Lecturer in the Department of Health Sciences, has been awarded 'Supervisor of the Year' at a University of York celebration event, held on the 27 June 2012.

This is the fifth year that the University of York Students’ Union (YUSU) has invited students to nominate the ‘Supervisor of the Year’. Over 250 nominations were received and Anne was awarded 'Supervisor of the Year' because the range of supportive statements included in her nomination stood out from the rest. Her welcoming, approachable and supportive attitude, her knack of offering constructive feedback in a professional and courteous manner without causing offence and her ability to encourage students to be the very best they can, were all cited as reasons for why she deserved this award.

Congratulations to Anne for this much deserved accolade.

At the same event, Dr Karen Spilsbury also received a certificate recognising her ‘consistently excellent supervision’ of students.
