Entries are now open for the Manx Graduate Dissertation Competition, with the winner to be announced at UCM’s Research Festival on Friday, 17 October 2025 at the Villa Marina.
This annual competition invites final-year Manx students—whether studying at UCM or off-Island—to showcase their dissertation work. This year’s winner will receive a £200 prize.
Participants are asked to submit a poster summarizing their dissertation by Friday 26th September 2025.
The Research Festival’s Organising Committee will judge the entries and reveal the winner during the event.
Gail Corrin, UCM’s Higher Education Manager, said: “This competition offers a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate the skills, knowledge and professionalism developed by Graduates during their studies, in front of employers and the wider research community.”
