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 commemorates the scientific work of physicist Harald Rose. In the late 1980s, he proposed a groundbreaking concept that made it possible to visualize atoms using electron microscopy. Together with his colleagues Maximilian Haider and Knut Urban, Rose brought this concept to life. In recognition of this achievement, the three scientists were awarded the prestigious Wolf Prize in 2011, a distinction held in similar esteem to the Nobel Prize within the physics community.
In 2015, the company CEOS – Correlated Electron Optical Systems GmbH – established the Harald Rose Prize in honor of Professor Dr. Harald Rose’s 80th birthday and in recognition of his pioneering contributions to the development of electron microscopy.
