Huge congrats to Dr Grund for winning the University Teaching Excellence Award 2017!

We are extremely proud that Dr Thomas Grund (UCD Sociology) won the university-level teaching award 2017. After having received already a college-level teaching award, Thomas is being recognised as one of the best lecturers at the whole of UCD across all subjects! UCD Sociology and the College of Social Sciences and Law are very happy to have Thomas as an instructor.

At the undergraduate-level, Thomas teaches SOC10070 Sociological Analysis and Research Design and SOC20230 Analytical Sociology

This award has been established to recognise UCD faculty and staff in a teaching role who have demonstrated sustained commitment to teaching excellence and student learning at UCD across all subjects. The award carries a bursary of €1,500 which will be paid to the School to be spent on career development or teaching enhancement activity. There will be a ceremony in the autumn to formally present the award. Huge congrats again, Thomas! Well done.
