BCN Awards & Hall of Fame
BCN Dissertation Award
BCN awards the best BCN dissertation of every Academic Year to a BCN PhD student who completed the BCN Training Programme. The nomination for this award will be done by the promotor(es). A small committee, with representatives of the faculties involved in BCN, evaluates the nominated thesis on these criteria:
-scientific quality
-representation of core elements of BCN; multidisciplinary topic/team/output with collaboration between BCN faculties
-originality, innovation and ‘societal impact’
-personal input of the PhD student in the research project.
