CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

The EDDA 2024 jury will only consider dissertations in Operational Research
defended between 1 January 2022 and 31 December 2023. The dissertation must
have been defended in a University located in a member country of EURO. The
author of the dissertation must be a member of a member society of EURO.

To be considered, a dissertation should be nominated by the supervisor of
the thesis (one of them in case of multiple supervisors). The supervisor of
the dissertation is asked to provide the jury with the following
information:

*The text of the dissertation;
*An extended abstract (3 to 5 pages) of the dissertation; this abstract
should be written in English and should include precise keywords;
*If the dissertation is not in English, a paper in English which has been
authored or co-authored by the candidate and which describes the core ideas
of the dissertation. This paper should preferably have been published in or
submitted to an international journal;
*Nomination letters (or reports) from two referees selected by the
dissertation supervisor, supporting the submission and stating their
assessment of why the dissertation should win the award;
*An up-to-date CV of the candidate, including a list of publications.

No nomination will be considered without these items. Please also check the
guidelines.

Since many doctoral dissertations in OR are defended each year only
outstanding pieces of work are expected to be submitted. The jury would
like to remind supervisors that only high-quality theses might have a
chance of winning the award.

The jury selects a shortlist of finalists who will present their work in a
special session at the 33rd European Conference on Operational Research in
Copenhagen. There is no registration fee for each finalist. EURO will also
contribute to the travel and accommodation expenses. The winner will be
determined by the jury at the end of the special session(s) and will be
announced by the chair of the jury during the closing session of the EURO
2024 Conference.

Applications should be submitted (as a zip file or equivalent single
submission) online
https://www.euro-online.org/awards/edda2024/registration.php by the
deadline of January 31, 2024.
