The Judging Panel is pleased to announce that the champion for the ENGL New Logo Design Competition is Shu-fan Yang, a student of BA in Communication Design at the School of Design.
A total of 37 entries from 25 participants were received and the competition for the winning one was very keen. The Panel would like to give special compliment to the runner-up, Seth Dikmadugoda, for a high quality design with creativity and aesthetic appeal.
Our Department will be retitled to the Department of English and Communication with effect from 1 September 2021. The new title reflects our status as an interdisciplinary department that features linguistics and communication experts over the world. This diversity is also the hallmark of our undergraduate and postgraduate programmes and is reflected in the wide range of subjects that students can take at the BA or MA levels . Also, the new title is synonymous with our tagline, which is "Excelling in Professional Communication".
Please join us to congratulate the champion, and thanks again to those who participated in the competition. Some refinements will be done on the winning logo and it will be released when it is ready.
With best wishes from the Judging Panel,
Professor Hans Ladegaard, Head, Department of English
Professor Bernadette Watson, Associate Head, Department of English
Mr Paul Lee, Chair, Department of English Advisory Committee, Department of English
