GSIA Faculty
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. In 2007 Chris 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. In 2009, in recognition of our commitment to excellence
in the teaching of international relations, the GSIA program was
awarded the College of Asia and Pacific Award for a Program that
Enhances Student Learning, with special mention to Greg Fry and
Farnaz Salehzadeh for their tireless work in support of the program.
This is but the latest award Farnaz has received for the key
administrative role she plays in the program.
