The Graduate School is excited to announce that graduate student Mackenna Wood from the Department of Physics and Astronomy has advanced to our top 10 in the Three Minute Thesis (3MT) Final Competition scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 11 at 4 p.m. in Bondurant Hall G100.

The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) is an academic competition held worldwide that provides current graduate students an opportunity to foster effective presentation and communication skills. Participants have just three minutes to explain the breadth and significance of their research project to a non-specialist audience. This is the eighth annual competition sponsored by The Graduate School.

A distinguished panel of judges will select first and second place while the audience will select a presenter to receive the People’s Choice award.

All are welcome to attend to support the finalists so please help spread the word. We look forward to an exciting final competition!
