3MT: Skills Valuable Beyond Degree Conferral
If your grandmother asked you about your research or scholarship, would you be able to explain it to her in language she understood? And if a journalist called, would you be able to explain it clearly and concisely?
Communicating your research to people in your field might be easy, but stripping away the jargon for a general audience is another story.
In the Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition, graduate students compete for monetary prizes by distilling their thesis or dissertation research into a three-minute presentation in front of a non-technical audience with the use of one static slide. Learning to speak plainly about a complicated topic while showing its impact is a skill that will affect students’ futures in unexpected ways. Just ask a few of our 3MT alumni.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ 2020 Women on Boards (2020WOB), the leading global education and advocacy campaign accelerating women to corporate boards, today inaugurates its bold new name and vision:
50/50 Women on Boards (50/50WOB), with women directors holding roughly half of all corporate board seats.
In 2010, 2020WOB set a ten-year goal for women to hold 20% of the corporate board seats of companies listed on the Russell 3000 Index. In 2020, women reached a historic 22.6% of the public company board seats. While this was an important milestone, out of the 2,982 Russell 3000 companies nationwide, our
Gender Diversity Index (GDI) research revealed only five percent (154 companies) have gender-balanced boards. Additionally, one-third (1,064) of the Russell 3000 companies still only have one or no women on their boards.
BP has announced the appointment of two new board members and two retirements.
The London-based energy giant, which operates the largest refinery in the Midwest along Whiting s lakeshore on Lake Michigan, named the American Karen Richardson and the German Johannes Teyssen to the board as non-executive directors effective Jan. 1, 2021. On behalf of the board, I am delighted to welcome Karen and Johannes to BP. Karen brings exceptional knowledge of digital, technology, cyber and IT security matters from her career working with innovative companies in Silicon Valley, Chairman Helge Lund said. With long experience and a decade at the helm of one of Europeâs largest energy companies, Johannes brings deep knowledge of the sector and its continuing transformation. Â
