UPEI graduate students captivate audience at 2026 Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition
Big ideas took centre stage at the University of Prince Edward Island on March 20 as graduate students transformed complex research into compelling three-minute stories at the 2026 Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition, held at The Fox & Crow in the W.A. Murphy Student Centre.
"My Honours thesis in History was the most important part of my undergrad."
What brought you to UPEI? Why did you choose to study here?
I'm originally from a small town in central Alberta called Ponoka. It's mostly famous for its stampede held every summer. I started my undergraduate degree in 2020 initially as a psychology major before shifting over to a double major with psychology and history at the end of 2021. I picked UPEI because of the small, intimate campus and because I have family living in PEI. I love the summers there so that was a big pull too!
