Nominate Now - IE Best Dissertation Award 2025
We warmly invite your nominations for the third edition of the IE Best Dissertation Award. This prestigious Award recognises excellent PhD dissertations in Informatics, empowers emerging Informatics researchers and helps bring their work to a broader audience.
All Informatics Europe members are invited to nominate or endorse an outstanding PhD dissertation defended in the academic years 2023-2024 or 2024-2025 (on or before December 31, 2024).
The Award Committee will evaluate nominations based on:
- originality of research and methodology
- impact and quality of achieved results
- societal relevance
- clarity and quality of exposition
Should more than one dissertation reach an equivalent top score, the one with the highest societal impact score will be selected.
To expand the reach of outstanding research, the winner will be invited to present their work at the European Informatics Leaders Summit (ECSS 2025) and to publish their work in a dedicated Springer series. If the winning dissertation is already published with an ISBN or under copyright protection, the Committee will award the publishing opportunity to the best unpublished dissertation submitted.

We look forward to receiving your nominations and celebrating the next generation of Informatics researchers.
