The announcement was part of the RSB’s annual Accreditation Awards Ceremony, held on Thursday 10 April, at the House of Commons—a memorable evening celebrating excellence in biosciences education.

Over 80 graduates were also awarded prizes during the event for gaining Top Project Awards, including our very own MSci Marine Biology with Professional Studies graduate and current PhD student Reece Mills. Reece received the The Royal Society of Biology Advanced Accreditation Award for his MSci thesis. Speaking of his time at Queen's, Reece said:

“I am extremely grateful to both my supervisors, Drs Jonathan Houghton and Patrick Collins, for their continued support and guidance throughout my degree. Their enthusiasm and passion for marine science, conveyed in lectures and meetings, not only made the learning process enjoyable and engaging, but also further inspired me to pursue a career in marine research."

We also extend our sincere thanks to Prof Ciaren Graham and Prof Angela Mousley who lead on the accreditation process and were integral in once again securing these accreditations.
