Three-minute Thesis Contest

CEGE 3MT (3 minute Thesis Contest) 2021

Graduate students from our programs competed by sharing their thesis research in just three-minutes.

  • Shi’an Wang: "Regulating mixed traffic flow: the power of automated vehicles"
  • Brandon Sloan: "Do plants drink responsibly?"
  • Sajad Vahedizade: "Blind spots of snowfall: Can satellite data deceive us?"
  • Mingfeng Shang: "Are lower-level automated vehicles (AVs) beneficial to the traffic flow?"
  • Jiyong Lee: "Small vs large sandwaves: What crafts the shape of a river?"
  • Svetlana Baranova: “High order imperfect interface modeling of thin layers”
The rules: Each presenter had exactly 3 minutes to make their pitch. They used only ONE static slide (no builds, animations, or embedded movies). At the end of all the presentations a panel of judges picked the winner and runner up and the audience (in person and remote) selected the “peoples choice.” The winner and runner-up will compete in the CSE competition Thursday, Oct. 21, 2021, 4-5:30 p.m. Keller Hall, Room 3-180 and on Zoom (participants must register, search CSE Three Minute Thesis Contest).
