ECSS - The Electronics and Computer Science Society - won first prize for their web site and publicity at the Students' Union EVA awards.

The EVAs - Excellence in Volunteering Awards - are given annually on a competitive basis to the student societies affiliated to the University's Students' Union.

This year's awards ceremony was held at Southampton Guildhall, and ECSS was awarded first prize for the best web site and publicity, beating the other shortlisted societies, which were the University Concert Band, the Investment Society, Showstoppers and Wessex Films.

'This is the first time ECSS has won an award,' said James Snowdon, an ECSS committee member. 'It's obviously a fantastic achievement for the Society and we are all very proud.'
