More time to enter Prospects Postgraduate Awards

Employers of postgraduate students now have until 20 September 2013 to enter the Prospects Postgraduate Awards as Graduate Prospects announces that the deadline has been extended by two weeks to account for the busy holiday period.

The Best Business Partner Award celebrates successful collaborations between employers and universities that ensure postgraduate courses meet the needs of business. It is one of eight categories, which span campaigns, agencies and businesses.

Entries can be completed online at www.postgraduateawards.co.uk. The winners will be announced at a glittering awards ceremony on 19 November in Manchester with a gala lunch and networking opportunities.

Mike Hill, chief executive of Graduate Prospects said: “These are the first and only awards dedicated to celebrating excellence and innovation in postgraduate education, so employers looking to strengthen their position and relationships in this field should seriously consider entering.

“Judges will be looking for nominations from employers that demonstrate a cohesive and integrated approach to employability bridging the gap between education and industry. I wish all those entering the best of luck and look forward to celebrating at the event in November.”

Graduate Prospects’ website prospects.ac.uk houses the official postgraduate course database. It has become first choice for postgraduate advertisers, and students and graduates seeking further study information.
