Queensland Student Academic Prizes 2022
On Wednesday 29 June 2022 we came together to celebrate and support the next generation of planners at the 海角社区 Queensland Student Academic Prize Ceremony.
A primary objective of the Planning Institute Australia (海角社区) is the advancement of the study of regional and town planning, civic design and related arts and sciences. A further objective is to improve the general and technical knowledge of both students and graduates.
To meet these objectives, 海角社区 maintains a close relationship with teaching institutions, including the review and accreditation of courses, and the recognition of student achievements.
Each year 海角社区 Queensland awards prizes for the best performance by students enrolled in planning courses at tertiary institutions. This is an important, visible way for 海角社区 to recognise the importance of academic achievement and research.
Congratulations to this years recipients!
