Golden Dandelion Awards
Dr Emilka Skrzypek, Deputy Director of the Centre for Energy Ethics (CEE) and Programme Director of the MSc in Energy Policy and Finance, was awarded the Golden Dandelion Award for two MSc modules: Energy Inequalities and Climate Responsibilities and Energy and Climate Change Policy.
“These modules are emblematic of our MSc programme. They combine academic learning and critical reflection with development of practical skills and professional attributes needed to help shape better, more sustainable energy futures,” Dr Skrzypek explained.
The Golden Dandelion Awards, now in their sixth year, celebrate excellence in Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), highlighting St Andrews’ commitment to equipping graduates with the knowledge and skills to tackle complex energy and climate challenges while promoting social equity.
Dr Skrzypek also serves as Capacity Building lead for the Scottish Research Alliance for Energy, Homes and Livelihood, reinforcing the University’s role in connecting research, education, and societal impact.
