Three Minute Thesis Competition 2013

 

The Three Minute Thesis competition for 2013 will commence soon.

The Three Minute thesis competition challenges RHD students to respond dynamically and engagingly to the basic question "tell me about your research" in just 3 minutes.

RHD students who have previously competed have described how worthwhile the process was and how much it helped them to define what they were trying to achieve in their RHD project.

In the Faculty of Education and Arts participants in the Three Minute Thesis competition must compete in a School Heat. Winners from each School then progress to the Faculty Final.

If you are interested in participating in the Three Minute Thesis Competition please complete the Registration form which can be obtained from your School contact.
