How to apply
Send a mail to doktorat(at)uni-graz.at with your name + field of study + a summary of your doctoral thesis in three clear-cut sentences until 18th January 2024.
A jury will select the 3MT 2024 contestants. The applicants will be informed about the decision by January 23, 2024 the latest.
Eligibility
The 3MT is about communicating research results, not mere research plans. Therefore, active doctoral researchers (i.e. prior to thesis defense, no graduates) are eligible to participate if and only if they have already achieved substantial research results that can and have to be presented in the presentation. Thus the target group most likely consists of doctoral candidates in the last year of their thesis. Graduates are not eligible.
