A critical piece of the graduate student journey is working towards gaining experience and building skills to support your transition to the next step in your career development journey. Why should graduate students participate?
· Skill-building to support professional development
· Practice sharing your research in a meaningful way
· Earn extra money by winning prizes
· Meet and support other graduate researchers and have some fun!
Two competitions supported through the School of Graduate Studies are 3MT (3-Minute Thesis), and Images of Research.
1) Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) is a research communication competition developed by The University of Queensland that challenges research higher degree students to present a compelling oration on their thesis and its significance in just three minutes in language appropriate to a non-specialist audience. https://threeminutethesis.uq.edu.au/
2) The Images of Research (IoR) competition is a unique opportunity for Graduate Students at the University of Lethbridge to display their research, scholarly and artistic work. The aim of the competition is to provide graduate students with an artistic alternative to highlight their work, as a way to celebrate the diverse research at the University of Lethbridge.
