SUMMARY:HYBRID: UCT Three-Minute Thesis (3MT) Competition
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n \n\nARE YOU THE NEXT 3MT UCT WINNER?\n\n\n\n \n\nIf 
 you are a Masters or PhD student with a research story to tell (i.e. 
 you’re far enough in your research journey to have results to share)\, 
 consider entering into the UCT Three-Minute Thesis (3MT) Hybrid 
 Competition\, to be held on Tuesday\, the 29th of September 2026\, and 
 stand in line to potentially become a winner in either the Masters or PhD 
 category.\n\n \n\nThe 3MT competition is an international concept and 
 organisation that challenges students to consolidate their ideas and 
 research findings\, so they can be presented concisely to a non-specialist 
 audience – i.e. in 3 minutes!  Battle it out against friends and 
 colleagues\, as you learn and demonstrate the art of presenting your 
 research in a compelling and clear way.\n\n \n\nWinners in the PhD category 
 will go on to participate in the hybrid National 3MT Competition\, hosted 
 by the University of the Free State\, on the 23rd of October 2026.  Prizes 
 are up for grabs in the National competition!\n\n \n\nIn order to help 
 competition entrants in developing the art of presenting their work 
 concisely and succinctly\, and providing more information about the 
 competition\, you may join the hybrid Preparing for the Three-Minute Thesis 
 (3MT) Competition workshop from 10h00 to 13h00 on the following 
 dates:\n\n17 August 2026 - register here. \n\n11 September 2026 - register 
 here.\n\n The second workshop is a repeat\, so you need only sign up for 
 one session. \n\n\n\n \n\nTo enter the UCT 3MT Competition\, click Begin 
 Registration below and select the format in which you will be participating 
 i.e. IN PERSON or ONLINE.  Entries close on 31 August 2026.\n\n \n\nIf you 
 have any questions about the competition\, please contact the Office for 
 Postgraduate Studies at pgdevelopment@uct.ac.za.\n\n \n\n\n\nWho will reign 
 supreme @UCT 3MT?!
