Vice-Chancellor’s Award for Education
James Filbin was selected from the 17 award winners to receive the Vice-Chancellor’s Award for Education in recognition of the critical work of technical staff in supporting students. The Hackspace, which James runs, is a shining example of an initiative which actively encourages all kinds of students to get involved and try things out in a safe and supported learning environment; it has had a positive impact on students right across the Faculty and has materially influenced the University’s thinking about the design of similar space for the Temple Quarter campus.
