Did you write a top-notch Bachelor’s thesis? Sign up for the Global Undergraduate Awards!
The Global Undergraduate Awards is an international programme that highlights outstanding essays, theses and projects at undergraduate level from all fields of science.
The aim of the competition is to:
- highlight the outstanding achievements of final year and second year undergraduate students,
- offer an opportunity for networking, and
- showcase their skills globally.
The winners will be offered a trip to the three-day Global Undergraduate Summit in Ireland. The winning entries will be published in the Undergraduate Library database, which is open to all. There is no cash prize.
Last year, University of Helsinki student Mikko Seppälä won the global category in mathematics and physics. Read Seppälä’s thoughts on taking part in the competition.

- You are in your final or penultimate year of undergraduate study or have graduated as an undergraduate student in the last year.
