The ANS Sushil C. Jain YMG Pitch Your Thesis Competition is open to students who are in the process of finishing their graduate degree in the field of nuclear engineering or have recently defended their thesis.
The ANS Young Members Group organizes a “Pitch Your Thesis” competition in conjunction with the ANS Annual Meeting. The selected participants will have three minutes to present their thesis, using one slide, and captivate an audience of peers who will vote for the best pitches.
The winners will receive a monetary award and be invited to publish their pitch in ANS News, and the first-place winner will be given the opportunity to present a webinar hosted by YMG.
Participants will be required to register for this competition by May 31.
