3 Minute Thesis, or 3MT®
3MT® is a research communication competition developed by The University of Queensland (UQ) in Australia, whereby students engaged in research have three minutes to present a compelling oration on their thesis and its significance. 3MT® challenges students to consolidate their ideas and research discoveries so they can be presented concisely to a non-specialist audience. Students have 1 slide and 3 minutes to give a presentation. If students go over 3 minutes they are disqualified. The winner and runner up at each college competition present at Student Research Day.
