Mines 3-Minute Thesis Workshops 2024
Want to improve your presentation skills and ability to communicate with a wide variety of people?

Like many universities around the world, Mines participates in a program intended to help graduate students develop important presentation skills, especially for non-specialist or public audiences! 

During workshops, we provide guidance and support as students prepare and deliver a 3-minute summary of their thesis research in an engaging, accessible way with 1 static slide as an illustration.

The 2024 Mines 3MT Workshops will be held in Feb-March 2024; competitions will be March 28 and April 3 2024 at Mines (finale at the GRADS symposium 4/3/24). The Mines winner will go on to represent our campus in a regional Colorado contest on April 19. Judges in all contests represent a variety of non-academic and non-specialized roles, from campus police chiefs to campus presidents to Colorado policy-makers. 
More details and times can be viewed here.
