    The academic community of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid gives its recognition to the unique merits and values of our institution's doctoral theses with its Outstanding Thesis Award. 

    This award acknowledges the quality of original research works based on their scientific and technological contributions to the stock of knowledge in their field. According to the volume of work produced by each Ph.D. program, this award is granted on an annual or bi-annual basis.
