Thank you and congratulations to all our doctoral students who have been involved in the 3 Minute Thesis competition this year!
From a field of quality video presentations in the heats, the judges have now chosen 5 finalists. And in no particular order, they are… (drumroll please!)

A massive congratulations to all five finalists!
At the AUT 3MT Finals event on Tuesday 9 September from 4pm in AF116 on the Akoranga campus, the finalists’ videos will be screened and the winner will be announced. There will also be prizes for the runner-up and the winner of our Audience Choice award. The talented first-place winner will go on to represent AUT at the Asia-Pacific finals.
The AUT 3MT Finals event is part of AUT Wiki Rangahau / Research Week. You can register to attend this event (and any others you find interesting) here. Friends and whanau are also welcome to come to the 3MT finals! The event will be livestreamed for those who can’t make it in person.
For now, we wish our finalists luck as they refine their entries for the finals!
