The University website has been named the people’s favourite in the fifth edition of the Lovie Awards, which is presented by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS).

The judges also awarded the website silver - the top rating in its category - beating, among others, the Guardian, Imperial College and the Department for Education.
“
It’s a great honour that our efforts have been recognised by such a prestigious and competitive pan-European award, and doubly satisfying that we gained so much popular support in winning the People’s Vote. I couldn’t be more proud of the team.
