For the 2024 Award, as ever, a cash prize of £500 is on offer to the winner, with smaller cash awards to commended entries. Discretionary free places at the IHBC’s Annual School, valued at around £500, are also on offer to selected entries.
Some details of the IHBC Student Awards:
- The award is presented for an outstanding item of taught-coursework accepted as part of either under-graduate or post-graduate courses ending in the academic years either to 31 July 2023 OR 31 July 2024
- Content need not be on conservation, but can relate to ANY aspect of the Built or Historic Environment, including for example, its evaluation ( history, research, investigation or recording); management ( planning, policy, finance or linked operations and tools such as site management or conservation plans), and/or intervention (g. design, technology and project plans), as well as more general practical or theoretical considers with conservation implications
- Submission for this award is ONLY possible online. If your coursework isn’t easily digitised – such as craft work – we can accept suitable digital records, such as a film record
- Any submission must be of a form that can be authenticated by the course tutor in accordance with our guidance.
