Tocknell was also additionally awarded the Cloete medal for the best student in Economics over three years of undergraduate study.
The prize for the top honours student went to Andrea Gauna (left in picture above) and second place to Joanna Smith. Jeanne Terblanche (second from the right) won the prize for the best Master's student, followed by Jérôme Dolling in second place. The Cloete medal for best postgraduate student in Economics also went to Andrea Gauna.
In addition to the departmental prizes, additional prizes to the top students were awarded by Genesis Analytics and by ERSA.
