3MT Competition
Established by the University of Queensland in 2008, 3MT is an international competition held at over 200 universities worldwide. It is open to PhD students, and challenges participants to present their research in just three minutes, in the form of a single static PowerPoint slide that can be understood by an audience, who although intelligent, have no background in the research area.
Swansea University is one of around 70 UK-based institutions that now form part of a global network, encouraging postgraduate research students to promote their research and enthusiasm for their chosen topic to reach non-specialist audiences. 3MT is designed to showcase to a variety of audiences the excellent quality and diversity of research being undertaken by postgraduate research students at Swansea University, and its relevancy and impact upon the world in which we live.
