Celebrating the best of the University of East London
We’re excited to announce this year’s Students’ Union awards! These awards are a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the best of the University of East London community, recognising the staff and students who do such great work every day.
Last year's awards ceremony was a glamorous and inspiring evening where we were able to celebrate the amazing achievements of our community. This year will be no different, with categories to celebrate staff, student groups, and course representatives.
The winners will be selected from student nominations, so we need to hear about the staff and students who you think should be recognised for their efforts. We’re asking students to nominate the people that make their university experience so brilliant.
How do I make a nomination?
Visit the specific award pages, read through the criteria and submit your nomination through the form.
It’s important that your submission explains clearly why the person or group fits the awards criteria – simply saying a lecturer’s teaching methods are creative, or that a group committee member was great, will be insufficient.
We want to know what your nominee has done, why it’s so special, and the impact it’s had on your uni experience.
The deadline for nominations is 9:00 on Tuesday 8 April. The nominations will be judged by panels of representatives from the Students’ Union and University.

Let’s celebrate together
The Students’ Union Awards are back for 2025, with an in-person awards ceremony and dinner to celebrate our prestigious winners.
The evening is set to feature a drinks reception and three course dinner, as well as performances from some of our talented students. After the winners are announced, there’ll be a party with a DJ and dancing until the event ends at 23:00.
The evening is all about recognising and celebrating the people that make the University of East London so great – not only our winners, but all our nominees too.
Whether you’re a nominee, a nominator or just a supportive friend, we’d love for you to join us as we honour the staff and students who contribute so much to our University community. It’s going to be a brilliant evening, and the perfect way to end the term in style.
Residential Life will also be joining us to present their annual awards – don't miss out!
