Recipients of the DCU President’s Teaching and Learning Awards for 2020 were announced at a virtual event held earlier today. 

Orla Bourke from the School of Communications in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences was announced as the winner of the ‘New Lecturer’ category. Brian MacCraith, DCU President, referenced Orla's outstanding commitment to students and her willingness to exceed expectations when delivering her citation:

She makes considerable extra time beyond her teaching hours to prepare content, offer feedback & to develop her own teaching ability.

Congratulations to Orla from colleagues in the School of Communications and the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences on her New Lecturer President's Teaching Award!
