Abstract

The “3 Minute Presentation” is a graduate student competition based off the more popular “3 Minute Thesis” competition. The program aims to help graduate students learn to inform others of their research in a quick and accessible manner. Programs to engage graduate students more deeply in their education require evaluation to determine if they are useful and effective at meeting their intended goals. Evaluation literature in graduate educational programs is currently limited, but increasingly needed for both the field and the students served.
