In the 3-Minute Thesis Competition hosted by AACEI-Montreal Section, graduate students are challenged to present their thesis topic in 3 minutes and perfect their elevator pitch in front of a panel of academic and industry professionals. In addition, this year, undergraduate students are going to present some of their course projects that are related to AACEI areas of interest such as project management, cost engineering,..etc.
