The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) Competition is an annual competition held by more than 900 universities around the world. It is a research communication competition developed by the University of Queensland in Australia whereby doctoral students are provided with three minutes to present their research. The competition cultivates the academic, presentation and research communication skills of postgraduate students. Furthermore, it challenges the research postgraduate students to communicate the significance of their projects and results to a non-specialist audience in just three minutes and a language appropriate to an intelligent but non-specialist audience.
Three winners from each college will participate at an institutional level. The 3MT national competition will be hosted by the University of Free State. For students to participate in the National 3MT competition, they should have participated at the institutional level. The institutional winner and runnerup will be eligible for representation at the national level. Click here for more information.
The deadline for submissions is Friday 9 September 2022.
