Department Photo Competition 2023-34

The theme for the 2023-24 competition is The Great Depression

If you joined either the School's Treasure Hunt or Scavenger Hunt, or the self-guided 'Dead Economists Walk', and you took pictures as part of the challenge, or if you're just a keen photographer, why not enter the Department's photo competition?

This year's theme is 'The Great Depression' and you can use your imagination in how you interpret this.

The deadline for submission is Friday 17 November (end of Week 8).

The competition is open to all students enrolled in the department: undergraduate, including General Course students based in the department, masters' and PhD.

Winners will be announced on Monday 4 December (beginning of Week 11), and a gallery of the winning and shortlisted entries will be created.

The winner will receive a £50 Amazon voucher, and the two runners-up will receive £25.

Rules and how to enter:

Submitted photographs must have a clear and evident link to the theme – no additional explanatory text is permitted.

Submit your photo in .jpeg format using this form: Photography Submission Form by 2pm, Friday 17 November 2023. 

There is a maximum of two submissions per entrant.

Participants must be enrolled in a BSc, MSc or PhD programme taught in the Economic History Department of LSE. General Course students based in the Department of Economic History are also invited to enter.
