November 21
3:00–5:30 p.m.
Erb Memorial Union (EMU) Crater Lake Rooms and Diamond Lake Room

One slide and three minutes. That's all that graduate student competitors can use during this lively part of the Graduate Research Forum taking place on Thursday, November 21, 2024. This is a great opportunity for competitors to hone their presentation skills, network early in the academic year, and get a chance to qualify to represent the UO at national and international 3MT competitions. (And win cash prizes!). Winners of the UO 3MT competition win cash prizes (First place wins $500; second place $300; third place $200). The first place competitor will be eligible to participate in the regional competition hosted by the Western Association of Graduate Schools in mid-March 2025.

Come support graduate student presenters as they compete in the preliminary rounds between 3pm and 4:30pm at the Crater Lake Rooms and in the Diamond Lake Room. Then, join us to watch the six finalists in Crater Lake Room North!

Erb Memorial Union (EMU) Ballroom

Why YOU should come to this Expo...

You're curious about your future. Explore different career paths and job roles across industries. EXPOse yourself to unique career pathways that can use your career readiness skills and passions to make an impact in the world. You want to make connections. These organizations LOVE to hire Ducks and want to help you find your career fit. You might even meet UO alumni recruiting for them at the expo. Ask a recruiter what career readiness skills you can be building now to make you a top candidate in the present or future (and add them to your Linkedin network for future connections!). You want to find a job, internship, year of service, volunteer opportunity, and more! If you're actively job searching, have your resume ready to hand out and a short and sweet synopsis about yourself and your professional interests ready to go! If you're just exploring options, collect contact info, do some additional research, and do an informational interview to learn more before you apply. You want to build your confidence! Practice asking questions of employers AND sharing about who you are and what you're passionate about.  Every expo you attend and each time you approach a recruiter, you get more and more comfortable presenting yourself in a professional manner.

WHO'S COMING? Find your career fit with over 70+ employers comprised of private industry; public, educational, and non-profit organizations; local government, the federal government, law enforcement, and military--ALL on campus and excited to share more with you about their organization and early career talent opportunities. Open to students from ALL majors, classifications, and identities. Every expo looks a little different so come each term to keep exploring and expanding your career opportunities!

WHAT NEXT? Register for the Expo on Handshake today to learn about all the companies coming, and positions of interest you can be researching. We'll also send you tips and advice for how to make the most of the expo, including Career Readiness Week workshops like our Resume Extravaganza so you can have a great resume to hand to potential employers!

The University Career Center thanks Enterprise Mobility, and Sherwin Williams for sponsoring all of our Winter Career Readiness Week events and workshops, and Techtronic Industries (TTI) for sponsoring the Expo!
