CEME student Jessica Bohorquez, 2019 winner of the Asia-Pacific 3MT Finals.
The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) is an annual skills development activity that challenges Higher Degree by Research students to explain their research project to a non-specialist audience in just three minutes using a single PowerPoint slide. It is not an exercise in trivialising or ‘dumbing-down’ research; the oration should engage the audience without reducing research to entertainment value alone.
This information session will provide information on the rules and requirements of the competition, the competition format and how to successfully sell your thesis in 3 minutes!
This session will be delivered online as a Zoom webinar. Bookings will close 30 minutes prior to the start of the session, and an email will then be sent to those registered to access and join in.

Additionally, although no audiovisual material is permitted in the presentation, a 30-second example can be played before the 3-minute presentation commences.
