Congratulations to I/O Ph.D. student, Abbey Salvas, on their outstanding presentation in GW's Three Minute Thesis Competition!

Congratulations to Industrial/Organizational Psychology Ph.D. student, Abbey Salvas, on the strong presentation of their research at GW's first annual Three Minute Thesis competition! 

Developed by The University of Queensland (UQ), the Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition celebrates research being conducted by students. The competition cultivates students' academic, presentation, and research communication skills. Since 2011, the popularity of the competition has increased and 3MT competitions are now held in over 600 universities across more than 65 countries worldwide. Students from across GW's doctoral degree granting schools/programs participated in this year's competition.

The challenging goal of the competition is to summarize and present pages of student research in just three minutes. Abbey successfully presented their dissertation research titled "Where can I be me? The role of psychological safety and social support in authentic identity expression for TNB employees" in this short amount of time. We applaud Abbey for their outstanding presentation and commend their commitment to advancing the field of Industrial/Organizational Psychology.

The 2024 3MT competition was sponsored by GW's Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs (OGPA) and was held on Thursday, February 22, 2024. Please visit the OGPA Three Minute Thesis page for more details.
