Levenson 10 years

“Since 2007, the Levinson Emerging Scholars Awards have supported undergraduate researchers whose passion for science never rests. Mentored by and working alongside some of the University of Washington’s most accomplished researchers and teachers, these students participate in the invigorating work of advancing knowledge to solve some of society’s most intractable problems.”

“In its first 10 years, 81 awards totalling $431,155 have supported undergraduates’ advanced research projects, including funding to present their work at a professional conference. So far, 95% of Levinson Scholar graduates have stayed in a STEM field.”

“Built in the 1960s, it is a distinctive space for contemporary art and architecture which presents a public programme of solo and group exhibitions, education projects and talks and events involving the academic community from the Faculty of Architecture and Built Environment and the Westminster School of Media, Arts and Design.”

“On Wednesday 6 December, the University of Westminster hosted a 10-year anniversary celebration and welcomed over 350 guests. The event included projections, musical performances from the London Contemporary Music Festival, which are still running until 10 December, as well as the launch of four printed and electronic catalogues, designed by Paul Khera and put together by Professor Katharine Heron and Ambika P3 Curator, Dr Michael Maziere, documenting all the past exhibitions, musical and film events, as well as student shows which took place at the venue.”
