gnome3 for ubuntu is not officially released but the good news is there is a PPA provided by ubuntu gnome3 team

in a terminal run the following commands and restart the system. while booting please select gnome3-desktop in the list

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install gnome-shell
