The Supervisory Committee of the Doctoral School of the Universitat Jaume I has proposed to the Rectorate the concession of nine Extraordinary Doctorate Awards of the 2014/2015 academic year. These awards, which recognize the academic excellence of the thesis and their scientific value, consist of a highly competitive call in which have been presented 143 applications from researchers who read their theses during the academic years 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 and were rated unanimously excellent *cum laude*.

The Extraordinary Doctorate Awards acknowledge the research work developed within the framework of the development of a doctoral thesis. The merits that evaluation committees take into consideration for awarding these distinctions are the thesis’ contribution to the advancement of knowledge within its scope and the transfer of knowledge to society, with the aim of contributing to improve citizenship’s quality of life and social and economic progress. The awards will be presented, as usual, during the academic course opening ceremony to be held on 23 September 2016.

Within the branch of Arts and Humanities have been awarded Drs Ana María Muñoz Miguel, for her contribution to improve the training of medical translators, and Aina Monferrer Palau, for the linguistic, literary and textual study of the poetry of Vicent Andrés Estellés. In the field of Social and Legal Sciences, the winners have been Jacob Guinot Reinders for his analysis of the role of trust, altruism and cooperative learning in organization management, and Jesús Peiró Palomino with a thesis that analyses the links between capital and economic development.

In the field of Technology, the awarded works deal with improving the monitoring and control systems of the industrial processes written by Daniel Dolz Algaba, and the development of ceramic coatings for increasing energy efficiency in the turbines used for power generation and aircraft propulsion developed by Pablo Carpi Cobo. Finally, in the field of Basic Sciences, the winners have been Lubertus Biljsma, who has launched different techniques for the detection of drugs in water samples; Sergio Gonell Gómez, who has synthesized novel catalyst multifunctional materials and luminescent materials, and David Recatalá Ferrandis, who has designed and synthesized new photoactive materials based on molybdenum with potential application to the production of hydrogen from water and sunlight.

The Doctoral School of the Universitat Jaume I, with 19 study programmes, is the centre responsible for training new researchers. Its mission is to provide trainees with singular capabilities that help them address the challenges faced by society in general, whether in academia or in the professional world. With the call of Extraordinary Doctorate Awards, the Universitat Jaume I appreciates the effort and dedication of young scientists and researchers and their contribution to generation of knowledge.
