<p><b><span style="font-size:14.0pt">What is 3MT?</span></b><span style="font-size:14.0pt"><br>
</span>Doctoral and Master’s students have three minutes to present a compelling oration on their thesis and its significance. 3MT is not an exercise in trivializing or ‘dumbing-down' research but challenges students to consolidate their ideas and research
discoveries so they can be presented concisely to a non-specialist audience. The Three Minute Thesis<sup>®</sup> (3MT) was founded by The University of Queensland in 2008.

<br>
