Excellence in Teaching
The academics who teach in the Graduate Studies in International
Affairs program are not only eminent in their respective fields
of study but also highly regarded for the quality of their teaching.
This is reflected not only in the feedback we receive from students
each year, but also in the many awards won by our faculty. Bill
Tow is a recipient of an Australian Award for University Teaching,
the highest award in this area in Australia. Greg Fry has won the
ANU Vice-Chancellor's Teaching Award. And in 2006, in recognition
of his lecturing skills, Chris Reus-Smit was elected by the ANU
student community to deliver the inaugural 'Last Lecture' to University
staff and students in the Great Hall of University House. Heather
Rae and Raymond Apthorpe were also nominated for this honour in
2006, and in 2007 Kathy Morton, Andrew Phillips, and John Ravenhill
were nominated. Most recently, in 2007, Christian Reus-Smit received
the Award for Teaching Excellence in the inaugural College of Asia
and the Pacific Teaching Awards.Each year our teaching staff are
nominated for other ANU teaching awards as well. These achievements
reflect the passion our staff have for studying diverse aspects
of international relations, as well as their belief that good teaching
is challenging and well structured.
