Three Minute Thesis (3MT) is a competition developed by the University of Queensland which challenges doctoral students to present a compelling spoken presentation on their research topic and its significance, in just three minutes.
Sheffield Hallam will be holding its 2016 3MT competition on Wednesday 22 June. As well as winning a prize of £500 towards attending an academic conference of their choice, the winner will be put forward as SHU’s entry to the UK national competition.
All you have to do is present your doctoral research topic to a mixed-disciplinary audience, using 1 side and in no more than 3 minutes.
The competition is open to all SHU doctoral researchers who will not have had their viva by 22 June 2016.
For further information, see 3MT 2016
Please email doctoralschool@shu.ac.uk by Friday 29 April to express an interest in participating, stating your name, Research Centre/ Faculty, thesis title and preferred heat.
