School of the Built Environment lecturer, Paul Tracy, has been shortlisted for the 2015 Times Higher Education Most Innovative Teacher awardIt is the second time that Paul has been nominated for this award - he also reached the shortlist in 2012 - making Paul's 2015 nomination a particularly significant achievement.
