Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s will host its annual 3 Minute Thesis (3MT) competition on March 27 and March 28 featuring over 20 graduate student participants.

3MT gives master카지노 게임 컬렉션�s and PhD students a chance to present their research to a panel of non-expert judges in three minutes using only one slide and no props. The competition takes place in two heats with the top students competing in a final panel on April 9.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�The real challenge is to effectively communicate with the audience without using too much technical jargon,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says first-time participant John Forster, a master카지노 게임 컬렉션�s student studying mining engineering. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Understanding the research culture is important and although it will be difficult to do in three minutes, I am looking forward to the challenge.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

Developed by the 카지노게임사이트 of Queensland in 2008 to promote effective communication of research, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s was the first Ontario university to host a 3MT Competition in 2012 and the first to host a provincial-wide event the following year. This event provides students, staff and faculty with a unique opportunity to learn about the significant research being undertaken by graduate students at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s. 

PhD candidate Frank Secretain was a 3MT finalist in 2013.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�With students participating from different fields, this sort of competition should help to build up a better inter-disciplinary atmosphere amongst the graduate students at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Kurosh Amoui-Kalareh, a master카지노 게임 컬렉션�s student in Religious Studies and a first-time 3MT participant.  카지노 게임 컬렉션�I would highly recommend taking advantage of an opportunity like this to impact even a small group of people.카지노 게임 컬렉션� 

While the event is a competition, 3MT also gives participants a platform to share what they have been working on during their time at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s and expand their knowledge of the range of research happening on campus. 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�I really believe that research should not be separated into individual silos,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Jasmin Ma, a master카지노 게임 컬렉션�s candidate in Kinesiology and Health Studies, who is competing in 3MT for the second time. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Our research is important to us and being able to share it with the public means a lot. It카지노 게임 컬렉션�s an opportunity to share our passion.카지노 게임 컬렉션�
