Interested in winning up to $2,500 to support your research? Enter to participate in the 2014 UCSB Grad Slam: http://gradpost.ucsb.edu/grad-slam
The Grad Slam is a campuswide competition for the best three-minute research talk. The grand prize is $2,500. Two runners-up will receive $1,000. And, the top four presenters in each preliminary round will receive a $50 gift card to the UCSB bookstore (that's a 1 in 2.5 chance of winning!).
This is a great opportunity to show off your research and to perfect your elevator pitch. The Graduate Division is providing additional support this year to help you design an award-winning presentation. Jeffrey Hanson, an instructor in the Writing Program, will be hosting three workshops to help you design and facilitate an engaging presentation that captures the attention of the general public. The Graduate Division Peers will also be available for one-on-one meetings to review your presentations and provide feedback.
The deadline to apply to present is Saturday, March 15. For more information and to apply, visit: http://gradpost.ucsb.edu/grad-slam
