Join the Graduate School for a workshop designed to help you turn complex ideas into clear, engaging stories your audience will remember. Learn strategies for structuring your content, connecting with your audience, and presenting with confidence, with time to workshop your ideas and receive feedback in a small-group setting.

This workshop also kicks off the UGA 3MT Competition for Fall 2026, facilitated by Dr. David Peterson and Dr. Daniel Peach. Registering for the workshop does not commit you to participating in the 3MT competition.

Stick around afterward for free food and conversation with fellow graduate students!

The 2026 Graduate Experiential Professional Development (xPD) Internship Program has officially come to a close, with 21 doctoral students completing paid internships across 18 UGA units.
