Three Minute Thesis in Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies

Warm Congratulations to the Recipients of the ECMC Chair in Islamic Studies Three Minute Thesis Prizes:

* Banafsheh Mohammadi, PhD student, Art & Design, (First place Prize: $500)
* Sajad Soleymani Yazdi, PhD student, Modern Languague and Cultural Studies (Second place Prize: $300)

The Three Minute Thesis is a skills development activity that challenges graduate students to explain their dissertation or thesis research project to a non-specialist audience. The idea is for students to orally convey the significance of their work using a maximum of three slides in just three minutes. Their ability to present their research to a multidisciplinary audience in accessible and engaging language will be evaluated.
