The RIBA Education Department is responsible for a range of prizes, scholarships and bursaries to support and reward students, graduates, academics and practitioners. The RIBA is responsible for setting standards for education and practice; the range of awards outlined in this section show that the RIBA encourages students, academics and practitioners to achieve those standards, and rewards those that exceed them.
The two main education awards programmes are:
The President's Medals Student Awards| (awarded to the best design project at Part 1, the best design project at Part 2 and the best overall dissertation).
Annie Spink Award for Excellence in Architectural Education| (awarded to an academic or group of academics who have made an outstanding contribution to architectural education).
Further information on these two awards can be found by visiting the RIBA Awards| section of the website and the President's Medals dedicated website.
