    November 23, 2019. Initial Adjudication Session

    Meeting at Brock Hall, all adjudicators will gather before splitting into groups and reviewing student applicants, scoring them and providing actionable feedback for the applicants.

    Applicants will not be presenting in-person. Rather, adjudicators and the planning committee will be reviewing the applications via online recordings posted to YouTube. Adjudicators will be in-charge of reviewing applicants outside of their field of expertise.

    February 15, 2020. Live Competition

    The official details are TBD, but it will be held at the UBC Vancouver Campus, with the twenty top 3MT applicants presenting their applications to the attending adjudicators.

    Food will be provided, and the top 3 best 3MT presenters needs to be decided, so be sure to attend! 

    UBC’s Undergraduate 3MT Competition is funded by the Program for Undergraduate Research Experience (PURE).

    F.A.Q.

    The original 3MT program was founded by the University of Queensland. UBC’s Undergraduate 3MT is not affiliated in any way with the University of Queensland but we would like to acknowledge and credit them with the original 3MT event conceptualization. Rules, structure, and scoring are all different to accommodate the undergraduate student level.
