Recognition.

2012 2012 Vice-Chancellor's Award for Professional Staff Excellence in the team award category
University of Newcastle (Australia)
Team has made an outstanding contribution to enhancing the positive student experience through the creating and implementing of two novel remotely controlled experimental labs in Physics at the University of Newcastle, PHYS2240 course. The collaborative professional work of team members involved a development of the concept for a new apparatus, research, assemble apparatus, program the computer control code, write safety procedures and organising safe workplace.
