The 3MT is an opportunity to articulate your research in front of an audience, but with the challenge of doing it in three minutes.
The College of Medicine Annual Education Symposium is hosting its second annual Three-Minute Thesis competition (3MT)! The 3MT is an opportunity to articulate your research in front of an audience. The challenge? You are only allowed to present in a static position, use one image or slide and have three minutes to summarize your research.
This competition is open to all health sciences students, including those in Veterinary Science, Optometry, Pharmacy, the College of Medicine, Health and Rehabilitation Sciences and GME program residents.
There are three rounds to this competition. The opening round will be held via video submission, in front of any static image or slide. Those selected to advance to the semi-final round will be notified in mid-December. Semi-finalists will deliver their talks in-person during the Annual Education Symposium on Jan. 15, 2025 before a judging panel and a live audience that afternoon on the main stage in the forum of Hamilton Hall’s Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Center.
The grand prize winner will receive a $100 gift card or Ohio State swag at similar value, along with the recording of their presentation from AES shared on the Office of Curriculum and Scholarship website.
To be considered for the first round, record yourself giving your presentation. Then, upload your video by Sunday, Dec. 1 at 11:59 p.m. We will notify those selected to participate in mid-December. Visit our website for more information, including tips and official rules.
