Harald Rose-Prize
The Harald Rose-Prize is awarded for outstanding master's theses or dissertations that are related to electron microscopy.
The Harald Rose-Prize is intended to commemorate the scientific work of Harald Rose. It honors outstanding theses in the fields of imaging or analytical methods, applied physics, materials science or chemistry that are related to electron microscopy.
The prize is endowed with EUR 3,000 and is awarded annually, alternately at Ulm University and TU Darmstadt, where Professor Rose used to work. At Ulm University the award ceremony is held on Dies Academicus.

The Harald Rose Prize honours the scientific work of Harald Rose. At the end of the 1980s, the physicist proposed an ingenious concept that made it possible to visualise atoms for electron microscopy. Together with his colleagues Maximilian Haider and Knut Urban, Rose realised his concept. In 2011, the three scientists were awarded the Wolf Prize for this achievement, which is as prestigious among physicists as the Nobel Prize.
The company CEOS - Correlated Electron Optical Systems - GmbH donated the Harald Rose Prize in 2015 on the occasion of Professor Dr Harald Rose's eightieth birthday and in honour of his pioneering research in the development of electron microscopy.
