Über den Preis
The GAPS Graduate Award recognizes outstanding graduation theses on new anglophone literatures and cultures as well as varieties of English. More details about the award can be accessed here. Each year, the Gesellschaft für Anglophone Postkoloniale Studien/ Association for Anglophone Postcolonial Studies (GAPS) confers the GAPS Graduate Award for young academics. The aim is to honour outstanding theses (undergraduate and master’s theses as well as state examination theses) on Anglophone postcolonial literatures and cultures as well as on the varieties of English submitted to universities and colleges in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Theses that were submitted outside of these countries are eligible for consideration if written by a student member of GAPS. The award winners are chosen by a three-person jury composed of university instructors. The Graduate Award for young academics was first conferred in 2008.
