Three-Minute Thesis Competition

Selling our Scholarship (3MT-SOS) Doctoral Student Competition

We are once again offering a competition for our doctoral students, adapted from the UGA Graduate School's event. The Three Minute Thesis (3MT™) is a research communication competition developed by The University of Queensland.

The exercise develops academic, presentation, and research communication skills and supports the development of students' capacities to explain their research effectively in language appropriate to an intelligent but non-specialist audience.

Student Poster Competition

Each year, the College of Education Research Conference offers graduate students a chance to compete in a research poster competition. Submissions are welcome from all disciplines across the College; the Office of Research and Graduate Education reserves the right to accept submissions based on specific criteria and professional standards.
