Nipissing University invites the community to help close out Research Month at its annual Three Minute Thesis Competition (3MT®) held in the Nipissing University Theatre (F213, 100 College Drive, North Bay, ON) on Thursday, March 30 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Nipissing University PhD in Education students Christopher Godfrey, Rebecca Kasperavicius, Lynn Cummings, Vuong Tran and Man Tran, presented their panel, “We’re all in this Together: Benefits of a PhD Cohort Model” on Thursday, November 3 at the Canadian Association for Graduate Studies (CAGS) 60th Annual Conference held in Montreal, Quebec.
Earlier this month, Nipissing University hosted its annual Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition where 14 students across six graduate programs were challenged with presenting a year's worth or more of research, in just three minutes. In addition to the strict time limit, presenters were restricted to just one PowerPoint slide and the spoken word to relay their complex research to the audience and a panel of three judges in an engaging and easy-to-understand way.
Congratulations to Megan MacKinnon, a Master of Environmental Science student in Dr. Steven Arnocky's Human Evolution Lab, on the recent publication of her research in the journal, Frontiers in Psychology. The paper examines whether exposure to optimistic climate change messaging increases pro-environmental behaviour.
