The 3rd annual Brandeis 3MT (Three Minute Thesis) competition is fast approaching!
The 3MT is a spoken word competition designed to showcase graduate student research in three minutes using only one slide with the idea of appealing to a general audience. This competition is open to all graduate students who are working on a thesis/dissertation for the sciences, social sciences, and humanities/arts. Winners can win up to $1000!

In the past, Brandeis has had a very strong showing at the 3MT competitions. Liz Mahon, a PhD student in Psychology, received the top prize at the 2023 3MT Competition at Brandeis with her presentation “Armed Against Alzheimer’s: How Your Voice Could Save Your Mind”. She also won first place at the Northeastern Association of Graduate Schools (NAGS) Regional 3MT Competition and went on to compete nationally at the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) 3MT Competition in Washington DC.
