Three-Minute Thesis is a research communication competition hosted by over 600 universities worldwide. It challenges graduate students in all research programs to present a compelling oration on their dissertation/thesis and its significance in just three minutes, in language appropriate to a non-specialist audience. Come watch some of Syracuse University’s bravest thesis-writers meet this challenge and learn about the exciting work graduate students are doing on campus. A multidisciplinary panel of faculty judges will award the winner a high-end laptop, membership in the professional organization of their choice, and the opportunity to represent Syracuse University in the 2nd annual ACC showdown of 3MT champions in Washington, DC, in June. A “People’s Choice” prize is also awarded by audience vote. If necessary, a second bracket of the competition will take place March 25, with the final round of bracket winners on April 3.
