At the end of each program year, the directors of the master’s program give three awards: the Ludwig von Mises Award for the best master’s thesis, the Friedrich von Hayek Award for the best academic record, and the Murray Rothbard Award to the student most committed to defending the ideas of liberty.
As well as recognition, winners receive three boxes of books written by members of the Austrian School of Economics and published by Unión Editorial.
