Good teachers are the key to good education. Each year, students at all UvA faculties benefit from the talents of inspiring, helpful and enthusiastic lecturers. That is why the UvA, the Student Council and the ASVA Student Union annually present the Lecturer of the Year award.
Between Monday 12 February and Sunday 18 February 2018, UvA students were able to cast their votes online. Voting booths were also present at Roeterseiland Campus and the Science Park for two days. All faculty winners have a chance to win the Lecturer of the Year award during the Education Day on 31 May.
A weighting mechanism was developed for the election, which calculated such aspects as the number of students and lecturers in different degree programmes at the University of Amsterdam. Each of the faculties presented a winner on that basis.
