The Expatriate Archive Centre (EAC) is welcoming submissions for its 2022 EAC Thesis Award until 31 March 2022. The EAC will reward one thesis with a prize of 500 euros.
To be considered, submissions must engage with the archive’s missions and objectives. Candidates should ensure their thesis also meets the following submission criteria:
Previous submissions came from universities all over the world, and have varied topics and perspectives. The winning thesis of the 2021 EAC Thesis Award was a creative non-fiction accounting of the Gulf Cooperation Coastal countries’ ‘lost generation’. Other theses explored municipal language policy, long-distance grandparenting, dual career support for accompanying spouses, and several other interesting topics.
Submission is simple: send an email to welcome@xpatarchive.com with a 500 – 750 word executive summary, a copy of your master’s thesis, and a completed EAC Thesis Award application form.
