What is Three Minute Thesis (3MT)?
The 3MT is an international competition for research students to showcase their research. Students have to talk about what their research is and why it is important in plain language for three minutes, with only a single PowerPoint slide.
This event is free and open to the public. If you cannot make it in person, you will have an option to watch the live stream on that day using Zoom. However we encourage an in-person audience to support our candidates!
