DCT Postgraduate Awards 2026

This special occasion brings our faculty community together to recognise the outstanding achievements of our postgraduate students and the dedication, innovation, and excellence demonstrated through their research, creative practice, and scholarship.

The awards also provide an opportunity to acknowledge the supervisors, colleagues, whānau, and friends whose guidance, encouragement, and support are an important part of the postgraduate journey.

Each recipient is presented with the Faculty of Design and Creative Technologies Dean's Award for Excellence in Postgraduate Study.
