The Chancellor's Prize for Excellence in the PhD Thesis is awarded each year to up to six nominees.
Nominations are made by faculties on the basis of: International recognition and impact of the research; publications or other research outputs that arise from or relate to your thesis, and recognition of the research (by professional organisations, prizes and awards, invitations to conferences, etc).
Preference is given to theses that are passed without amendment. Theses passed with minor changes may also be considered.
