Student of the Year
Every year, at the Graduation ceremony, Halmstad University rewards one student from each of our schools with the award Student of the Year. Everyone with a connection to the University can nominate candidates for the award.
By handing out the award Student of the Year, Halmstad University promotes current students that have excelled in different ways during their time at the University and that are positive role models for both the University, its students and for the surrounding community.
The possibility to nominate candidates is open between 17 November 2024 and 16 April 2025.
