The 3MT competition was founded in 2008 by the University of Queensland in Australia, and it is now held at more than 350 colleges and universities across 59 countries worldwide. At Hood, Graduate students present their research projects each May in three minutes using just one PowerPoint slide. No other resources or props are allowed. Students are judged on clarity, pace, audience engagement and stage presence. All attendees are then welcome to cast their votes for best presentation. There is a judge’s winner and a People’s Choice Award.
