Daniel Schumacher winner of SHE’s Dissertation Award 2020!

By  

At the School of Health Profession Education, we have about 15 PhD candidates each year that defend their PhD Thesis.

Many of these theses are of very high scientific quality. To honor our PhD candidates and to celebrate scientific progress in health professions education we offer an annual SHE Dissertation Award for the best PhD thesis defended in a particular year.

The SHE Research management team has studied all theses that were defended in 2020 and, after careful consideration, selected Daniel Schumacher’s thesis as the winner of the SHE Dissertation Award 2020. His thesis represents scientific work of the highest quality, offers novel perspectives on and research approaches to the much-studied topic of assessment and exemplifies how educational research can lead to impact on patient care.

Also, many congratulations to the three scholars whose PhD thesis were shortlisted: Zafar Iqbal, Lorette Stammen and Sanne Schreurs.
