Runner-up was Blane Green, who presented 鈥淟ipidic Ionic Liquids a 鈥楽olution to Air Pollution,鈥� mentored by Dr. Kevin West, assistant professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering.

The audience also selected Green for the People鈥檚 Choice Award. Deal and Green were congratulated by Dr. David Johnson, senior vice president for academic affairs; Dr. B. Keith Harrison, dean of the Graduate School and associate vice president for academic affairs; and Dr. Jeanette Manders, chair of adult interdisciplinary studies.

The 3MT庐 Competition originated at the University of Queensland in Australia. It is a research communication exercise competition that challenges graduate students to present a compelling oration on their thesis topic and its significance in only three minutes and using only one static slide. Both Johnson and Harrison said it is likely 新澳门六合彩开奖记录 will present the 3MT庐 Competition again because both faculty and students enjoyed the experience
