Three Minute Thesis

The Vitae Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition challenges Doctoral candidates to present a compelling spoken presentation (using one single slide) on their research topic and its significance, in a language appropriate to a non-specialist audience, in just 3 minutes.

Developed by The University of Queensland, 3MT cultivates students’ academic, presentation, and research communication skills. The competition supports their capacity to effectively explain their research in three minutes.
