3MT Competition Final

   May 2 , 2023 

10:00 AM – 11:30 AM (MDT) 

We are pleased to invite you to enter the CREATE ME² Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition final that will be held on May 2nd, 2023. This competition is a great opportunity for graduate students to practice public speaking and present their research in a form that is suitable for the wider community and a general audience. The 3MT presentation helps researchers to develop ways of explaining complex ideas in a form that is accessible and engaging for a non-specialist audience. It can also raise the profile of their work, enhance their CV, and enable them to network with like-minded researchers.

The CREATE ME² 3MT competition final will be held in person, and the competition is open exclusively for the CREATE ME² graduate student trainees. Our judges will select the top three winners prior at the in-person final event. The top three winners will be awarded a prize of $350, $250, $150 respectively. There will also be a People’s Choice prize of $100, and all attendees will take part in selecting the winner of this prize.

We look forward to seeing you at the CREATE ME² 3MT final!
