How to Craft Your Grad Slam Pitch
Bri McWhorter from Activate to Captivate will lead participants in an interactive 2-hour workshop designed to help you boil down the basic ideas of your research, ​package them in an accessible way, and ​present them confidently and concisely. This workshop is perfect for those participating in Grad Slam but ​is also useful for anyone wanting to become better at pitching complex ideas in short formats (such as at cocktail parties, during job interviews, and for entrepreneurial presentations).

There are TWO IDENTICAL SESSIONS available; please choose the one that best fits your schedule:
- Wednesday, February 28, 1-3pm (Flying A Studios, UCEN)
- Thursday, March 1, 9-11am (Engineering Sciences Building Room 1001)
