Professor Ann Ledwith, the Dean of Graduate Studies, launched the Thesis-in-Three competition in February 2022.  At the AHSS Faculty heats in April, 10 AHSS postgraduate researchers presented their thesis in 3 minutes.  Each participant explained their thesis in 3 minutes, using 3 slides. Participants gave an account of their research in bite-sized presentations, informing their fellow students, the wider UL campus community and the general public on their work.  At the final, AHSS had great representation from within our postgraduate community
