Nominations are now open for the 2025 ATU Alumni Awards which aim to recognise the exceptional accomplishments of graduates in the fields of Business, Science and Health, Engineering and Computing, and Education, Design and Humanities.
In addition, the university is proud to introduce the President’s Award, which will be presented annually to alumni who have made significant contributions to arts, sport, society, culture, or the region, through voluntary or professional work.
ATU President Dr Orla Flyn welcomed the launch of the awards, sayng she is delighted to announce the inaugural Alumni Awards, which will allow them to reflect on the achievements of graduates and the profound impact they continue to make in their chosen fields.
“We have a large community of alumni, with graduates coming from our legacy institutes of technology for over fifty years. We are incredibly proud of their accomplishments and the role that ATU plays in shaping the future leaders and innovators,” she said.
Lauren Reynolds, ATU Alumni Officer, highlights the importance of the awards in strengthening the ATU Alumni Network.
“These awards are not only a celebration of the success of our alumni but also a way to foster a deeper connection within the ATU community. By recognising the achievements of our graduates, we aim to inspire current students, connect alumni, and build a strong network of support that extends far beyond the university.”
Nominations for the ATU Alumni Awards are open to students, staff, and the wider community, and will be evaluated by the ATU Alumni Awards Selection Committee. Each nomination will be judged on the nominee’s contributions to their field, leadership, and how their work has inspired others.
