BA Thesis Award

The Pozen Center’s annual Human Rights BA Thesis Award recognizes excellence in writing about human rights, awarding three cash prizes of $500 each to current University of Chicago College students who are human rights majors or minors.

• Submissions must come from human rights majors or human rights minors.
• Any piece of writing used for a BA Thesis is eligible. The thesis can be written for any major, so long as it takes up a human rights subject.
• Submissions will be judged by the content and clarity of the writing.

Only human rights majors and minors at the University of Chicago are eligible.

• Applications are closed and will open again in Winter 2024.
