Kevin Chavez Laxamana - 09 March 2021

Thank you to all of our talented 2021 UAlberta 3MT Semifinals participants. It was a difficult decision but the following finalists were chosen based on the 3MT criteria of communication style, comprehension, and engagement.

These students will now perfect and workshop their presentations in order to get ready to take the virtual stage for the UAlberta 3MT Finals on April 1, 2021. The UAlberta 3MT Finals winners will receive cash prizes and the first place winner will compete at the 3MT Western Canadian Regional Finals, this year hosted by the University of Lethbridge.

Please join us for the 2021 UAlberta 3MT Finals on April 1 via livestream and cheer on our graduate students… three minutes at a time.
