World Conferences on Research Integrity

Excellence in Doctoral Research Award

One of the cherished traditions of the WCRIs is the Doctoral Forum.


The forum provides a unique opportunity for PhD students doing research on research integrity topics to interact and to get advice and comments from an international panel of experts in the field with a strong methodological background. The Doctoral Forum provides an exciting, friendly and supportive environment for selected PhD students to share ideas and to interact with each other and with established research integrity scholars.

Based on the quality and relevancy of the research project, the presentation of it by the PhD student, and the contribution made to the Doctoral Forum, the expert panel will decide on two Awards for Excellence in Doctoral Research.

On the recommendation of the Doctoral Forum panel, an Excellence in Doctoral Research Award will be granted to the best doctoral projects. Applications will be limited to doctoral students officially enrolled in a graduate program.

Based on the quality and relevancy of the research project, the presentation of the project by the PhD, and the contribution made to the Doctoral Forum, the expert panel will decide on the Awards for Excellence in Doctoral Research.
