As part of these efforts, the academy announces an annual thesis award for students who have successfully defended a degree thesis (equivalent to bachelor\u2019s\/master\u2019s level, or C\/D-level thesis) that addresses issues relevant to projects, project management, and project-based organizations. The theses are evaluated by a jury consisting of representatives from both industry and universities\/colleges represented in the academy.<\/p>\n Eligible theses should address issues relevant to projects, project management, and project-based organizations.<\/p>\n This represents a relatively broad field of knowledge where the connection to the project theme is central. There are no restrictions to specific academic subjects or research fields.<\/p>\n The deadline for the 2026 thesis award is January 31, 2026, which means the thesis should normally have been approved at a Swedish university or college during the period January 2025 \u2013 January 2026. All submitted theses automatically participate in the competition. Theses may be written in Swedish or English and authored by both Swedish and international students.<\/p>\n Participation in the competition normally occurs through thesis authors submitting their reports themselves, but supervisors or other teachers are naturally also welcome to do so on behalf of the authors. Send the thesis in PDF format to Johann Packendorff, professor at KTH and member of the competition jury, at johann@kth.se<\/a> no later than January 31, 2026. Theses approved from February 2026 onwards can be submitted on a rolling basis and will then be included in the 2027 thesis competition.<\/p>\n The jury initially assesses the quality and relevance of each thesis in relation to the Project Academy\u2019s areas of interest, after which a number of finalists are selected. The finalists are then evaluated based on the theses\u2019 topicality, appropriateness of method, linguistic quality, theoretical\/scientific contribution, and practical relevance.<\/p>\n The prize amount is a total of 10,000 SEK paid as a scholarship to the author(s) of the winning thesis. The thesis award is presented in connection with the Project Academy\u2019s ceremonial day or annual meeting. Since the 2017 award, no honorable mentions are given, but both the finalists and the final winner are presented in detail on the Academy\u2019s website. The jury\u2019s decision cannot be appealed.<\/p>\n
