Doctoral Students: Hone your communication skills, get feedback on your presentation style from an interdisciplinary panel, and win cash prizes!
The University of Florida Graduate School is hosting its third annual Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition on March 29th.
3MT brings graduate students from programs across campus together for an afternoon of rapid-fire presentations on their dissertation research. Pioneered by the University of Queensland in 2008, this competition challenges students to explain their research to non-specialist audiences in the space of just three minutes. Communicating clearly and engaging the audience are crucial.
In addition to the chance to win cash prizes awarded by the judges ($500 for the winner and $350 for the runner-up), participants will also compete for a People's Choice award ($250 - bring your whole department, family and friends!). All finalists will also receive a link to a permanent URL that can be included in their CVs or embedded in electronic portfolios or personal websites.
