The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) is an international research communication competition that challenges PhD candidates to present their research in just three minutes, using a single static slide, to a general audience. The competition was originally developed at the University of Queensland in 2008 and has since grown into an international event, with competitions organised by networks such as the Coimbra Group and SANORD. UiB invites PhD candidates from all disciplines to participate in our internal 3MT competition. The winner will represent UiB in the international finals of the Coimbra Group and SANORD.
Main supervisors of PhD candidates who defended their thesis in 2025 may receive compensation from Helse Vest if the candidate has either carried out at least 50% of the work at a health enterprise or received funding from there. To be considered, the main supervisor must register the doctoral degree by 26 February 2026.
