Our annual FedAwards celebrate the important achievements of students and clubs in a wide range of categories.

All University staff and students are invited to submit nominations. There are seven award categories and each has specific eligibility criteria. Do you know someone who has done something really special at Federation this year? (Or maybe you have – yes, you can nominate yourself.) Winners receive a certificate and an invitation to the award ceremony, usually held in November each year.
Nominations are open
If you'd like to put someone forward, now's your chance. Explore the categories and complete the relevant nomination form before 11.59 pm Friday 17 October 2025.
