The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) is a competition that celebrates the exciting research conducted by Higher Degree by Research (HDR) candidates. The 3MT was developed by The University of Queensland (UQ) and is now a prestigious international event run by universities all over the world.
The 3MT challenges HDR candidates to present their research to a non-specialist audience in a clear and engaging way in under three minutes, with only one slide to support their presentation. 3MT cultivates HDR candidates’ academic, presentation, and research communication skills.
HDR candidates participate in heats at local level (School/College), and the winners will go on to compete at the RMIT 3MT final. The winner of the RMIT 3MT final will go on to compete at the Asia-Pacific 3MT final.
