Welcome to your November edition of Alumni and Friends. We are delighted to announce the winners of the 2024 Alumni Awards whose contributions range from leadership in politics, business and international relations to creative technology and the arts. 

Also in this edition, read about members of our community donating to medical research, as well as a profile on a Hobart psychologist who has started an institute teaching his internationally recognised method for teaching a range of mental health conditions. 

We are also delighted to share with you news of the opening of The Shed – the final and largest building of the University of Tasmania’s expanded Inveresk campus in the heart of Launceston. Last week also saw an announcement about the future direction of our Hobart campus 

We hope you enjoy this edition. 

Warm regards

2024 Alumni Awards announced 

Our alumni never fail to inspire with their significant contributions both at home and across the globe. Congratulations to this year’s Alumni Award recipients. 

Nurturing home-grown medical research 

A deep care for community and the belief in a brighter future are driving forces to philanthropically support medical research, education and innovation. 

The Shed is complete – the final new building at Inveresk marks a new era for regional education 

In October we proudly welcomed the community to the opening of The Shed, which will support 160 staff and 1500 students across health and science disciplines.
