Three Minute Thesis Competition
This year the Warwick Physics Three Minute Thesis challenge returned with an intense competition. The premise? Our plucky postgraduate presenters had to passionately précis the point of their PhD projects in a pitch, neither prompt nor prop permitted. Three minutes only, unaided but for personal wit, charm and a single static slide, our entrants poured their hearts and souls out to confer their research, relevance and results to a panel of their peers. They were judged on their overall presentation skills, the clarity of their concise conferrals and how well they sold their projects, as if giving an elevator pitch with limited investable capital.
