ATI Research Laureate

The ATI recognises the most significant contributions to its activities by its staff and students on an annual basis by awarding ATI Research Laureates each year. There is a maximum number of awards, which will be considered by the Management Committee, and presented to the Director who will make the final decision. The process is to reward excellence and outstanding contributions by individuals, particularly in leading activities and enabling excellence that is evidenced quantifiably. The same ‘activity’ may not be reconsidered in the following year(s), should it have won an award in any previous year. The decision of the award committee is final.
A Laurette can get an award for two years running and then will be acknowledged in the following year, before qualifying once more. The scheme set up by the management committee is to encourage excellence, wherever it is found.
