Communication sc.

Dissertations “in the field of PR and organisational communication” (close translation — the page is German only).

The DGPuK division for PR and organisational communication and the publisher Springer VS honour an outstanding dissertation in the field of PR and organisational communication every two years. The prize consists of a public tribute, a free publication with Springer VS and books of the winner's choice from the whole Springer list worth €300. Dissertations from the field that are no more than two years old at the deadline are eligible; the cut-off is the hand-in date recorded by the examination office. Candidates or their supervisors may submit. The award is given at the division's annual conference.
Next deadline: 15.07.2026 expired
Deadline: Every two years; the 2026 submission deadline was 15 July 2026, and the award is given on 5 November 2026 at the division's conference in Salzburg. The 2026 round is closed; the page names no date for the next one.
Funding amount: kostenfreie Publikation bei Springer VS sowie Bücher nach Wahl aus dem gesamten Springer-Programm im Wert von 300 Euro
Target group: Authors of dissertations in the field of PR and organisational communication that are no more than two years old.
