CEE Three-minute Thesis Competition

CEE held its inaugural Three-minute Thesis (3MT®) Competition Finals on 15 May 2023. Five finalists, who shined during the semi-finals, gave stunning presentations about their theses in just three minutes or less.

The 3MT® was developed by The University of Queensland, Australia in 2008 to celebrate the discoveries made by RPg students and encourage them to develop the skills to communicate the importance of their research to the broader community. 3MT® competitions are now held in over 900 universities across more than 85 countries worldwide. This year, a total of 19 CEE RPg students participated in the 1st CEE 3MT® competition. Their excellent performances will inspire more newcomers in the future.
