The British Council, in partnership with the British International Studies Association, is pleased to invite entries to a master's dissertation competition from institutions teaching international relations courses.

We are looking for master’s dissertations that provide new scholarly insight and/or offers a new policy direction and that make an original contribution to international relations.

The prize recognises and promotes the achievements of students who completed their master’s programmes in international relations in the UK, in the academic year 2022-23.

The scheme is an opportunity for institutions to promote their programmes and for recent graduates to establish themselves in the field, and there are exciting prizes to be won.
