Nominations for the 2021 prize are now closed.

If you're a research student, you can nominate yourself for the prize using the nomination form. You will need to give details of your research work in terms that can be understood by a non-specialist reader.

You should then submit the form to your Head of Department or Head of Division in the School of Management, for shortlisting.

After the nomination deadline, Heads of Departments will consider all nominations and create a shortlist of up to three departmental nominations to put forward to the Prize Committee.

The Prize Committee will then meet in April to consider all shortlisted nominations from across the University and select a final shortlist of up to five finalists to attend a presentation event in May.

The Prize Committee is chaired by the Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Research) and includes the Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Doctoral and International) and members of the faculties, School of Management and Doctoral College.

The winner will receive £1,000 from Godfrey and Sue Hall. Finalists will receive a £50 voucher.
