Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) is a research communication competition developed by the University of Queensland in Australia. It challenges graduate students to make a compelling presentation on their thesis topic and its significance in just three minutes. The competition helps students develop academic, presentation, and research communication skills and the capacity to explain their research to a non-academic audience.
The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) 2024 competition will be a virtual competition, where graduate students will compete by recording a 3 minute video. If you are interested in competing this year, please complete the information below and you will receive further instructions and details. We will host a live event to present the videos in front of the judges and open to the public at UWF on Monday October 21st beginning at 4:30 CST. This event will also be live-streamed. At the end of the competition there will be a brief delay while the winners are determined and then will end with the announcement of the winners. The overall winner will represent UWF at the Florida Conference of Graduate Schools. Travel funds will be available if the recipient is not local.
Eligibility
