The Categories:

•  Postgraduate Research Image of the Year

Attention grabbing images to excite and inform a lay/non-specialist audience. Digital and non-digital images, e.g. a drawing, a painting etc. will be accepted.  The image can be of anything that relates to your research.  For example, is there someone or something that was the catalyst for you to undertake your Research?  Is there something you see every day while you do your Research that inspires you?  It could even be a montage of images or ideas in picture format.  The possibilities are endless!

• Three Minute Thesis

This is a competition developed by the University of Queensland in 2008. Competitors have three minutes to present an engaging and interesting talk about your research and its significance to an non-specialist audience. It’s all about being succinct and precise.
