Award Ceremony of the Professor Hilbert Publication Prizes

This year, for the second time, we have announced the Professor Hilbert Publication Prize, which is aimed at early-career researchers at the faculty. The award is intended to recognize doctoral candidates, postdocs and junior professors who have succeeded in publishing outstanding journal publications in 2023. This award is intended to recognize scientific activities and make them visible to the outside world.

From a total of 14 applications received, the interdisciplinary selection committee has chosen three award winners, who will be honored on April 24, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. in the Festsaal and will also provide insights into their publication projects. In addition to a brief summary of the content, they will also report on the development process of the publication (What were the challenges?, Why was the journal chosen as an outlet, etc.).

The award winners are:

• Tristan Becker (Junior Professorship in Business Administration, esp. Management Science) for the publication: Becker, T. et al.
