3 successful candidates for the Academic Women's Research Excellence Awards
Congratulations to the three ECMS candidates who were successful in the University's Academic Women's Research Excellence Awards (WREA).
The University of Adelaide’s Vice-Chancellor, in partnership with the Gender, Equity and Diversity Committee and the Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Vice-President (Research), established the Academic Women’s Research Excellence Awards (WREA) in 2015 to recognise, celebrate, and promote academic women’s research excellence at early career and mid-level career levels at the University of Adelaide.
In 2019 there were up to ten awards valued at $5,000 each.
