Postgraduate Dissertation Blog Award

After submission of PGT dissertations, postgraduate students from the academic year 2022/23 were invited to share a blog about their dissertation research of a maximum of 800 words, written for a general readership.

The judging panel members were looking for key insights such as: What was your main research question, and did you find answers or better questions? Did anything surprise you or give you new perspectives? And what did you learn in analysing your findings? 

A big THANKS to the students, who have participated in the first Dissertation Blog Award and who have all received commendations, and especially to the winner of the first Anthropology Postgraduate Dissertation Blog Award, Beatrice Messuti, whose wonderful entry you also find below.
