Hudson Institute: Three Minute Thesis Competition

Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) celebrates research conducted by PhD students across Australia.  It cultivates presentation and research communication skills by challenging students to convey the significance of their research, avoiding scientific jargon, in just three minutes.

Starting next week, Hudson Institute Centres will be holding 3MT heats in preparation for the 3MT Final on August 8, 2pm - 4.30pm at the de Kretser Concourse. The final winner goes on to compete at Monash University.

2015 Winner
Hudson Institute PhD student, Zoe Marks, blitzed the 2015 Three Minute Thesis Competition finals, winning both the Institute and Faculty level contests, and was runner-up across all Monash University PhD students.

“The 3MT experience was incredible,” said Zoe. “Both for the amount of support it received and for widening my network with other disciplines across Monash.”
