Two students of the CRMR stands out in the UL institutional competition “My thesis in 180 seconds”!
Very popular in many universities around the world, the My thesis in 180 seconds contest allows graduate students to demonstrate their communication and scientific popularization skills.
The 2021 finals of Université Laval’s “Ma thèse en 180 secondes” contest took place on April 29, 2021 in virtual format. Congratulations to Laurence Picard, a doctoral student in mechanical engineering under the direction of André Bégin-Drolet (FSG) and the co-direction of Pierre Blanchet (CIRCERB – FFGG), who will represent Université Laval at the national francophone finals to be held on June 15 with her flash presentation: “L’automatisation de la construction : Le futur”!
