Outstanding Dissertation Prize
The purpose of the best dissertation prize is to provide recognition to a young scholar who has significantly advanced our understanding of Latin America or the Caribbean. The award carries a monetary value of $1000. The CALACS Outstanding Dissertation Prize is made possible by the generosity of FOCAL.
Eligible dissertations may be in any discipline in the social sciences and humanities, and must have been completed at a Canadian University between June 2006 and spring 2008. Dissertations may be nominated by a Ph.D. committee or by individual candidates, however candidates are strongly encouraged to request supporting letters from their committee or others capable of assessing their work. Three hard copies of the dissertation and three hard copies of each supporting document should be sent to the CALACS Secretariat at the mailing address listed below. Deadline: February 15, 2008
All applicants must be CALACS members in good standing. For all membership information, please visit: http://www.can-latam.org/membership-form.aspx
