Coastal Communication Clips Competition
Louisiana Sea Grant is excited to sponsor the Coastal Communication Clips competition at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette on Friday, 24 April 2015. Coastal Communication Clips is modified from the Three Minute Thesis (3MT™) approach to research communication competition developed by The University of Queensland. The exercise develops academic, presentation and research communication skills and supports the development of students’ capacities to effectively explain their research in language appropriate to non-specialist audience. Graduate students have three minutes to present a compelling oration on their research topic and its significance using up to three PowerPoint slides. Coastal Communication Clips focuses on the ability of students to consolidate their ideas and crystalize their research discoveries.
