Economics Prize Ceremony 2021

Applying social distancing and CoVID-safe measures, the School of Economics convened for the annual prize giving ceremony in the BankSA teaching suite.

Professor Gareth Myles, Head of School, gave the opening address and welcomed Christopher Findlay from the South Australian Productivity Commission as our guest speaker. Students who had outstanding results and topped their class in certain subjects were awarded monetary prizes and certificates to acknowledge their performance. Students, their parents and our teaching staff met and mingled over afternoon tea while celebrating the achievements of our prize winners. The event was filled with robust discussions on the future of economics and the exciting opportunities that lie ahead for our students
