Next week, on February 26 at 3:30 p.m. in room 160 of the Plant Biotechnology Building, the first of three Three Minute Thesis semi-final competitions will take place. The Three Minute Thesis competition is one in which graduate students have three minutes and a single slide to explain their dissertation or thesis research to a group of judges and an audience (that may not even be familiar with the academic area). It’s a valuable exercise and a great way to showcase the amazing work being done by UT graduate students. It’s also a perfect way to start Graduate Education Week, so come by and watch the competition and support our graduate students!
