Students may choose (i.e. it is not required) to participate in the Graduate Scholars Competition. There will be prizes for 1st and 2nd place presenters in the poster and 3MT categories. In addition, the 3MT winner or a finalist may participate in the regional WAGS 3MT Competition next winter, where they will compete for cash prizes against graduate students from across the western United States.
See the presentation descriptions for more information.
