LSE100 Awards

Each year LSE100 awards two prizes to students who produce exemplary work on the course.

The prize for Outstanding Academic Achievement is awarded to students for outstanding work on their interdisciplinary group research project. This prize is awarded to groups who are nominated by their teacher and who demonstrate a commitment to interdisciplinary investigation, effective collaboration, and engaging communication of their research findings. Each group member receives a £100 cash prize. 

The Sir Robert Worcester prize for Exceptional Academic Performance was established following a generous gift to LSE100 from Sir Robert Worcester, Emeritus Governor of the School and founding member of the LSE100 Steering Committee. It is awarded to the student, or students, who receive the highest overall mark on LSE100 each year. The Worcester Prize winner receives a £250 cash prize.

Each year we celebrate the LSE100 prize winners with an Awards Reception, where members from across the LSE community come together to recognise and celebrate the prize winners' hard work and innovation. This year's Awards Reception took place on 9 October.
