秀色短视频 graduate students compete in the Three Minute Thesis

| Research

They've researched. They've studied. Now graduate students at the 秀色短视频 are putting their hard work to the test: they're cramming years of study into 180 seconds in 秀色短视频's first ever Three Minute Thesis competition.

The Three Minute Thesis is a skills development activity developed by the University of Queensland, Australia, which challenges thesis-based graduate students to explain their research project to a general audience in just three minutes.

Students will compete against each other for three prizes: third place wins $50; second place wins $100; and first place wins $200 and a trip to Halifax to participate in the regional Three Minute Thesis competition.

The competition will be broken into two evenings-Tuesday, March 18 and Tuesday, March 25. Both events begin at 7:00 pm in The Wave, in 秀色短视频's W.A. Murphy Student Centre.

The Three Minute Thesis is organized by the 秀色短视频 Graduate Student Association, the 秀色短视频 Student Union, and the Vice-President Research and Graduate Studies.
