On May 14, 2024, the School of Optometry successfully hosted the Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) Competition. Participants delivered engaging three-minute presentations, accompanied by a single static slide, to showcase their research topics and captivate the panel members.
Originating from the University of Queensland, Australia, in 2008, the 3MT® Competition is designed to enhance the academic, presentation, and research communication skills of postgraduate research students. It encourages them to effectively convey their research to a non-specialist audience within a three-minute timeframe.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the winners of the 2024 SO 3MT® Competition, who have earned their nominations for the upcoming FHSS competition on June 14, 2024.
