Prizes and Distinctions

Why you add prices in LUCRIS

By adding received prizes you can showcase your achievements. This contributes to create a more complete picture of you as a researcher, and of the research at Lund University. You can put the prize in its context by creating relationships between the prize and other information in LUCRIS. Connect a project, a research output or other activities to the prize if related.

Be aware that external people added to a prize must be asked for their consent. All who are added (both external and internal people) will receive the role 'Recipient'.

You are free to choose to enter any prizes and distinctions which you as a researcher at Lund University wish to showcase on the Research portal.

How to add prizes

To add a prize, log into LUCRIS, click the green 'Add Content' button, and select 'Prizes and Distinctions.' Choose the category that best matches your prize.

Organisations can assign an 'Editor of Prizes' role to an administrator to allow them to edit researchers' prizes.
