Each year, the Viterbi School of Engineering’s academic departments awards PhD candidates who submitted exceptional research dissertations the honor of Best Dissertation. Each PhD student who receives the Best Dissertation award is also nominated to compete for the William F. Ballhaus, Jr. Prize for Excellence in Graduate Engineering Research.
A faculty committee reviewed the dissertations and narrowed down the nominees to four finalists. From these nominees, a final winner is selected and announced at the Viterbi School of Engineering PhD Hooding and Awards Ceremony
