Undergraduate Essay Awards - Deadline for submissions extended to Friday May 19th

Wednesday, May 3, 2017 - 11:00

The Centre for European and Eurasian Studies is proud to announce its second annual undergraduate essay award. The award is open to all undergraduate students across a wide range of departments at the university. The Centre is now accepting submissions (2,000 -6,000 words) from students whose coursework focuses on topics relating to Europe.

We would encourage all students, particularly final year students, who have received a very high mark (68+) in an essay to submit such work for consideration. This is a great opportunity to demonstrate your excellent research and enable you to stand out as a prominent candidate for future scholarships and postgraduate programmes. Prizes will be awarded to two outstanding essays submitted in the current academic year. For further information on the award, please contact: graham.kay@mu.ie
