UKLA Student Research Prize
The UKLA Student Research Prize is awarded annually. The award is given for an outstanding student dissertation at under-graduate, post-graduate or higher degree level undertaken at a UK institution. Studies using any research approach (ethnographic, experimental, historical, etc.) are encouraged. Each study is assessed in the light of the chosen approach, the scholarly quality of its report, and its contribution to the field of literacy.
Criteria for Consideration for the Prize
The application must be submitted by November 1st. Applications will be assessed by the UKLA Research sub-committee. Electronic copies of shortlisted work will be requested. The successful applicant(s) will be selected at the March Research sub-committee meeting.
Review categories include:
Applicants will be notified of results by the end of March. The prize will be presented at the annual July International Conference, at which the winners will be invited to present their work. UKLA will fund weekend registration, travel (within the UK) and attendance at the conference dinner for the winner(s).
