About the Prizes
The President's Prize (formerly the Rector’s Prize) for Communication Skills is awarded to the highest scoring student on the Imperial Horizons module Science Communication.
The two Sir Arthur Acland Prizes for Excellence are awarded to undergraduate students of any department for excellence in Languages and Humanities subject areas.
Anne Barrett (College Archivist) and Dr Michael Weatherburn (Humanities and Social Sciences Field Leader) have recently discovered the orgins of the Acland Prize and that it dates from 1925/26 rather than 1947/48 as previously supposed. The history is now updated on the CLCC History webpages.
