For postgraduate students the deadline for logging Spirit of Sussex Award points is Thursday 1 August.

The award is your opportunity to showcase your engagement to future employers – you can add your award to your CV and LinkedIn.

The more points you earn, the higher your award:

• Bronze: 25 points
• Silver: 50 points
• Gold: 75 points.

Don’t forget - you can log points for activities you have done throughout all your time at Sussex. So, reflect back on some of the activities you have taken part in during your studies at University, and log those points!

The Spirit of Sussex Award team are hosting a points logging lunch on Thursday 11 July – come along for free pizza, to log points, ask questions and chat with fellow postgraduate students!
