What are the Nobel Prizes?

The Nobel Prizes are given out every year to honor achievements in the fields of economics, physics, chemistry, medicine, literature, and peace.

Each prize includes a cash award, a personal diploma, and a medal. The value of each Nobel Prize this year is 11 million Swedish kronor, or around $1,168,783 in US dollars.

The Nobel Prizes were created by Swedish entrepreneur Alfred Nobel, who is most known for creating dynamite. He donated the majority of his fortune to establish an investment fund that would be given out every year.

Nobel left 31 million Swedish kronor, which is currently equivalent to 2.2 billion Swedish kronor or more than $233 million USD, for the establishment of the prizes when he passed away in 1896. In 1901, they received their first award.

The annual winners are chosen by a group of designees that includes members from the Swedish Academy for the Nobel Prize in Literature, the Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institute, and the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
