      edition of the


      VCLA International Student Awards

and calls for the nomination of authors of outstanding scientific works 
in the field of Logic and Computer Science, in the following two categories:

  * *Outstanding Master Thesis Award*, to be given to the author of an
    outstanding thesis for obtaining a Masters degree or equivalent (2nd
    cycle Bologna process), and
  * *Outstanding Undergraduate Research Award*, to be given to the
    author of an outstanding thesis or final project for obtaining a
    Bachelors degree or equivalent (1st cycle Bologna process).

In both categories, the work must make an original contribution to a 
research field that can be classified as part of Logic in Computer 
Science, understood broadly as the use of logic as a tool that enables 
computer programs to reason about the world.

The committee will select a winner for each category. The winners will 
be invited to Vienna to present their project and participate in a 
festive award ceremony. Additionally, the Outstanding Master Thesis 
Award category is accompanied by a prize of *1,200 Eur*, and the 
Outstanding Undergraduate Research Award by a prize of *800 Eur*.

*Important dates*:
