Three Minute Thesis (3MT)

About the Competition
Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) is a competition for research master’s and doctoral students to develop and showcase their research communication skills.

The first 3MT was held at The University of Queensland (UQ) in 2008 with 160 graduate students competing. Enthusiasm for the 3MT concept grew and its adoption by numerous universities led to the development of an international competition in 2010. Today students from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Hong Kong take part in their own regional and national events.
