SNIS AWARD FOR THE BEST PHD THESIS IN INTERNATIONAL STUDIES 2017


SNIS AWARD FOR THE BEST PHD THESIS IN INTERNATIONAL STUDIES



The 2017 edition of SNIS Award that rewards the best PhD thesis in international studies received in a Swiss university is now open for entries. In line with the SNIS objective to support outstanding young researchers at the beginning of their career and to promote the interdisciplinary field of international studies, the envelope of this prestigious award has been increased to CHF 10’000.

Candidates for the entry of submissions must have received their PhD degree in a Swiss University in the calendar year 2016, with “summa cum laude”, or a mark equal or superior to 5.5.

The SNIS considers that international studies deal not only with the analysis of international relations, but also with political, economic, social, environmental, legal, and health issues that extend beyond national boundaries. Submitted PhD theses can deal with a wide range of academic disciplines, such as political science, economics, sociology, social and cultural anthropology, law, history, geography and environmental sciences.

A jury composed of professors with expertise in one or several areas relevant to international studies will evaluate the PhD theses submitted. A thesis that can convince the jury of its reach beyond disciplinary boundaries is a clear asset.

Please consult the SNIS website

The submission deadline is 4 May 2017
