2021 Virtual UPM 3MT Competition (Heats)

The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) developed by the University of Queensland is a competition wherein PhD students present their research projects to a non-specialist audience in just three minutes.

The competition tests students’ abilities to communicate the contents of their research to a public audience comprising people outside the students’ respective fields of study. Both the lay audience and the strict timeframe will enable students to reinforce their ideas and to avoid either overly complex terminology or oversimplification. To determine a winner, the competition judging panel will decide which among the presentations communicated their ideas intelligently and engagingly to the non-specialist audience.
