The Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) Competition celebrates exciting research being performed
by graduate students and cultivates their academic, presentation and research communication
skills by challenging them to present their work to a non-specialist audience in three
minutes (180 seconds!) or less using only one PowerPoint slide. Developed by the University
of Queensland in 2008, the 3MT® Competition is held at 900 colleges and universities
across more than 85 countries worldwide. This year, Binghamton will award prizes to
the first ($500), second ($400) and third ($300) place winners, as well as a People's
Choice winner ($150) who will be selected by the audience in real time. The program
is sponsored by the Graduate School.
