Australian University Teachers of the Year Profile Booklets

This booklet showcases the profiles of Australia’s most highly recognised university teachers from 1997 to 2023. Since its inception in 1997, the Australian Awards for University Teaching (AAUT) have celebrated the nation’s leading university educators and the significant impact of their teaching on student learning.

Outstanding educators have been recognised through Citations, Program Awards, Teaching Awards, and the prestigious Australian Award for University Teacher of the Year (AAUTY), formerly known as the Prime Minister’s Award.

AAUT Awards Ceremony Booklets

Teachers hold one of the most honourable and vital roles in society – shaping the future
of individuals from all backgrounds and at all stages of life. Universities could not educate
the nearly one and a half million students they serve each year without their dedication.

These awards recognise the most outstanding teachers and programs across the sector,
celebrating educators at every stage of their careers – from early career academics
to those who have dedicated a lifetime to learning and teaching. We congratulate all award winners and hope their achievements inspire current and future leaders in education.
