We are delighted to share the winners of the UOP Dissertation of the Year Award program. This award program has been established to acknowledge the exceptional dissertation work among our doctoral students. At the ۴ý, doctoral students who have successfully defended their dissertation within the past year and were nominated by their chairs or committee members were eligible for this award. The nominees' dissertations were evaluated through a rigorous double-blind peer-reviewed process. Each nomination was reviewed by at least two experts in the field. In cases where there was a tied score, a third reviewer assessed the nominated dissertation to ensure fairness. As a result of applying this thorough process, winners were identified.
Congratulations to the DOY winners!
