The UOW Graduate Research School and Researcher Development Unit invite you to the 2024 3MT Competition!
We are thrilled to announce that the 2024 UOW 3MT Competition will be held:
July 10, from 3.00 pm - 5.00 pm (with a social event to follow)!
Come and get behind our HDR candidates, as they share with us the amazing work they're doing and compete to represent UOW at the Asia-Pacific competition later this year. Read on for more information!
Last week, HDR candidates from across the four faculties battled it out at the 3MT Faculty Heats. In what was a riveting display of high quality and impactful research presentations, the competition highlighted the incredible talent and dedication of our candidates.
The judges had a challenging task, but in the end, two winners from each faculty emerged, each with a unique approach to conveying their complex work in just three minutes.
We want to congratulate all candidates who participated in these faculty heats. Their ability to distil and communicate their research so effectively is not only a testament to their hard work but also an inspiration to their peers and the academic community at large.
Should you have any questions about 3MT, please don't hesitate to contact the Researcher Development Unit at researcher-development@uow.edu.au.
We can't wait to celebrate the exciting research of our wonderful HDRs with you all!
Join us for the University of Wollongong's prestigious 3MT Final, where eight distinguished candidates will compete to present their research within three minutes. Come and support this wonderful event that spotlights the exceptional research undertaken by our HDR candidates.
The stakes are high with the champion of the UOW 3MT Competition receiving $1,000, and the runner-up taking home $750. Plus, you have the power to crown the People's Choice awardee, who will receive $500.
The excitement doesn't end there! We invite all attendees to continue the celebration at the UOW 3MT After Party, following the event.
