We were excited to extend an invitation to all Dissertation Chairs, Committee Members, and other CDS Faculty to nominate students who had successfully defended their dissertations for the Dissertation of the Year Award this year. The purpose of this award program is to recognize excellence in dissertation work among our doctoral students. Those who were eligible for this annual award were students from the ��ɫ��Ƶ College of Doctoral Studies who had successfully passed their dissertation defense with only minor revisions. One award will be given per doctoral program, including a Doctor of Education, Doctor of Business Administration or Doctor of Management, and Doctor of Health Administration.

The awardees will be invited to present their research at the annual Knowledge Without Boundaries (KWB) Summit, where they will also receive recognition. Additionally, each awardee will receive a certificate commemorating their hard work. Please note that students who have successfully defended their dissertations between July 1, 2023, and July 31, 2024, may be nominated. Faculty are invited to nominate their doctoral students. Students may also nominate themselves with an endorsement letter from one of their committee members. Each student can be nominated only once.
