Twenty-six graduate students participated in Three Minute Thesis heat competitions on Feb. 13. Nine were selected to advance to the final competition at 5:30 p.m. Feb. 21 in the 1xbet online sports betting Alumni Center Banquet Room.
Theses and dissertations can be more than 80,000 words, which can take hours to present, but graduate students in this 1xbet online sports betting have just three minutes and one slide to convey their often highly-technical research to a lay audience.
