Think of 3MT as a way to prepare your elevator speech--a method to narrow down tens of thousands of words of research to a three-minute presentation, while effectively explaining your research project in language appropriate to a non-specialist audience. Presenting in a 3MT competition will enhance your ability to communicate the "bottom-line-why"-- why your research matters and why it makes a difference. You may win some money along the way, too.
The preliminary rounds of 3MT will be held on Tuesday, February 20 and Wednesday, February 21, 2024 at 3PM in 325 EdSci. You can sign up here.
The final round of 3MT will be held on Thursday, March 21, 2024 at 10AM in the Heritage Room at McNamara Hall, as part of CEHD Research Day.
