The first Awards Ceremony for the Australian School of Business was held on 14 May, 2008, in the John Niland Scientia Building.

The Lee Whitmont Scholarship in Marketing was awarded to Ms Kerry Zhang, who is also President of the Ignite! UNSW Marketing Society.  The Scholarship, valued at $2,500, aims to encourage students to study marketing at UNSW and full-time students in their third year of the Bachelor of Commerce (Marketing) program are eligible to apply.   Applicants are assessed on the basis of academic merit, in particular their results in the second year marketing subjects, and demonstrated ability and leadership qualities.

The Hazel Suchard Memorial Prize in Marketing was awarded to Ms Emma Yeung for the best performance in MARK1012, Marketing Fundamentals.  Ms Yeung received a cheque for $250 and a certificate.

Marketing Honours students Ya Ting (Becky) Shan and Bernard Visperas were recipients of Australian School of Business Honours Excellence Scholarships.  These Scholarships are designed to encourage and assist the very best students to extend their studies for an additional year and to undertake the Honours program.  Bernard and Becky each received $5,000 and a certificate.

Congratulations to all our prize-winning students.
