The School of Graduate Studies holds workshops and events for students throughout the academic year. Check our events calendar below regularly to learn more about upcoming events. These include new student orientations, social events, workshops, career development opportunities, and much more.
Three-Minute Thesis
The Three-Minute Thesis (3MT) is a competition in which graduate students explain their research or scholarly/creative projects in jargon-free language to a general "lay" audience in three minutes with the help of only one static PowerPoint slide. It was started at the University of Queensland (Australia) and has since been adopted at universities worldwide.
