The Graduate School team is excited about the opportunity to share the work of our students on a larger-scale with our Idaho community, alums, and friends. Dissemination of research is a key component of your academic trajectory. Dean Adam Bradford and the Graduate School Team are so happy to have a role in your scholarly advancement, so to achieve this goal in the face of adversity, we've changed our Graduate Research Symposium to the Virtual Graduate Research Symposium. We will be coordinating Zoom sessions so that we can still host the 3MT, Poster Presentations, and Oral Presentations online.
3 Minute Thesis (3MT)
Our Three Minute Thesis will go on as an online Zoom Presentation session for all students who signed up to be apart of the event.
The Three Minute Thesis (3MT® ) is an academic research communication competition developed by The University of Queensland (UQ), Australia.
