The Institute of Acoustics have recently approved a new award named after the late Dr Bob Peters in recognition to his outstanding service to acoustics education and and his long standing commitment to teaching and student success. For 20 years Dr Bob Peters was part of the LSBU Acoustics Group teaching staff and contributed greatly to the good education standing that the group holds. The award was conceived and proposed by Dr Luis Gomez-Agustina, a former student of Dr Bob Peters. The first nominations will be considered this autumn 2021 for 2022. The award will be biannual and for a single outstanding or significant contribution to acoustics education and training or a sustained long-term activity in this respect.
