2025 Pro­gramme

Our 3MT (Three Minute Thesis) Competition in Summer 2025 featured two days of exciting roundtables and stimulating, in-depth discussions based on participants’ 3MT videos and exposés.
The full programme remains available for review and offers insight into the research presented.

How does the 3MT Com­pet­i­tion work?

Students present their own research in a three-minute recorded presentation and a written exposé, and then discuss their work in roundtable sessions. Competition winners are selected by a jury of faculty members.

3MT Present­a­tion

The presentation challenges students to present their research project knowledgeably, concisely, accessibly and engagingly for experts and non-experts alike in just three minutes.

Ex­posé

The Exposé requires students to concisely articulate their own research project by giving an overview of the topic, explaining the research motivation, providing a review of key literature and outlining the methodology.

Roundtables

The Roundtable Sessions provide a venue for moderated discussion of topics, which are open to the public. Topics include, for example, digitalisation, TAF, sustainability, international business, entrepreneurship HR, management, and marketing.
