Linda Warley (Assoc. Dean of Grad. Studies [Faculty of Arts]) is organizing a university-wide competition that will profile the research uWaterloo graduate students are doing. The competition is called the Three Minute Thesis, and the aim is that graduate students present their research in three minutes (no more) in plain English with the help of one static slide (no other props) before a panel of judges and members of the wider community, including members of the public. The University of Waterloo has not participated in this activity before, but we are excited to be doing so in 2013. The competition began in Australia, at the University of Queensland, but has now spread internationally. In Canada, UBC, Queen's, Western, McMaster and others have been involved over the past couple of years. This year Queen's will host a provincial competition. We are one of 14 participating universities in that competition. To get the flavour of this competition I suggest you visit a few websites and search on YouTube--all presentations are videotaped. Winners from the institutions below are also on their websites at these links.
