The University of Manitoba is thrilled to announce the 2026 Ma thèse en 180 secondes (MT180) competition. Inspired by the Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) created by the University of Queensland, the French-language MT180 was launched in 2012 by Acfas (Association francophone pour le savoir). The MT180 competition is more than just a contest—it’s a vital platform for the Francophone community within the university.
This high-stakes, French-language competition challenges graduate students to step out of the lab and onto the stage, translating their sophisticated research into a clear, engaging narrative for a non-specialized audience.
