E. W. Beth Dissertation Prize, 2019: call for nominations
Since 2002, the Association for Logic, Language, and Information (FoLLI)
has been awarding the annual E.W. Beth Dissertation Prize to outstanding
Ph.D. dissertations in Logic, Language, and Information,
http://www.folli.info/?page_id=74
with financial support of the E. W. Beth Foundation
https://www.knaw.nl/en/awards/funds/evert-willem-beth-stichting/
Nominations are now invited for the best dissertation in these areas
resulting in a Ph.D. degree conferred in 2018. The deadline for
nominations is the 15th of April 2019.
Qualifications
(*) A dissertation is eligible for the Beth dissertation prize 2019, if
the Ph.D. degree has been conferred in Logic, Language, or Information
between January 1st and December 31st, 2018.
(*) There are no restrictions on the nationality, ethnicity, age,
gender or employment status of the author of the nominated dissertation,
nor on the university, academic department or scientific institution
formally conferring the Ph.D. degree, nor on the language in which the
dissertation has originally been written.
(*) In accordance with the aim of the Beth Foundation to continue and
extend the work of the Dutch logician Evert Willem Beth, nominations are
invited of excellent dissertations on current topics in philosophical and
mathematical logic, philosophy of science, philosophy of language, history
of logic, history of the philosophy of science and scientific philosophy
in general, as well as the current theoretical and foundational
developments in information and computation, language and cognition.
Dissertations with results more broadly impacting various research areas
in their interdisciplinary investigations are especially solicited.
(*) If a nominated dissertation has originally been written in a
language other than English, its dossier should still contain the required
10 page English abstract, see below. If the committee decides that a
nominated dissertation in a language other than English requires
translation to English for proper evaluation, the committee can transfer
its nomination to the competition in 2020. The English translation must in
such cases be submitted before the deadline of the call for nominations in
2020. The committee may recommend the Beth Foundation to consider
supporting such nominated dissertations for English translation, upon
request by the author of the dissertation.
Prize
The prize consists of
(*) a certificate,
(*) a donation of 3000 euros, provided by the E.W. Beth Foundation,
(*) an invitation to submit the dissertation, possibly after revision,
for publication in FoLLI Publications on Logic, Language and Information
(Springer).
