RSIS students win NTU Three Minute PhD Thesis Contest

At the finals of the NTU Three Minute PhD Thesis contest that was held recently on 3 May 2019, RSIS swept the top awards. Three of RSIS’ PhD candidates – Marthe Memoracion Hinojales, Natallia Khanijo and Lendra Putra Nurezki – made it to the finals of the contest, and presented a summary of their theses to a panel of seven judges as well as a mixed audience from all the departments and schools of NTU. All three presentations were very well received, and our candidates won the first and second prizes of the contest: Marthe Hinojales emerging as the champion of the tournament and Natallia Khanijo winning second place. Both winners will now represent NTU in the national 3MT contest that will bring together PhD candidates from all the universities of Singapore. This was a stunning achievement for our candidates and RSIS as well, and we would like to congratulate them for reaching the finals and winning the first and second prizes.
