      Hey student123,

      Unfortunately no, not yet! The person sitting next to me did though earlier this year because the Engineering Department I work in at recently won an award from the Queen and some people from the University went to Buckingham Palace to pick it up.

      The Professor I work for also won an OBE over the weekend for what he has achieved over his career in science and engineering, so he too will go to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen and pick that up.

      Looks like I’m going to have to try harder before I win an award from Her Majesty!
