Beacon Awards

Save event
The Beacon Awards highlight the incredible students and staff in our community at the University of Plymouth, exclusively nominated and chosen by students.
This award ceremony combines multiple areas of the student experience at Plymouth. Together we take time to celebrate the work of students through their extracurricular activities, their academic representation work and the recognition of the fantastic staff that support them.
By celebrating as one award we will be bringing together our community to recognise the work that often happens behind the scenes to help students get the most out of their time at Plymouth.
Nominations open: 24 January 2025 • Nominations close: 17 March 2025 • Awards ceremony: 29 April 2025
