Skills development for research candidates
Participating in 3MT develops academic, presentation and research communication skills, while developing research candidates’ ability to effectively explain their research in a language appropriate to a non-specialist audience.
Building research culture in universities
3MT provides a valuable opportunity for postgraduates to come together, get to know one another and talk about their research. It also provides a supportive environment in which schools, institutes and universities can provide presentation skills training.
Building external relations for the university
3MT winners may go on to represent their university at national and possibly international 3MT competitions which provide an excellent networking and professional development opportunity. Previous 3MT finalists have benefited from invitations to a variety of other networking events following their participation in the competition.
