My Thesis in 180 Seconds, the international Francophone competition launched in Quebec, is back for the eighth time in France. Inspired by the Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition, MT180 is led in France Universités and the CNRS, and has been developed locally by volunteer university groups. In Lyon & Saint-Étienne, the competition is organized by the Université de Lyon on behalf of its member institutions.
On March 24, the regional final of My Thesis in 180 seconds competition (in French) will be held at the Université de Lyon. Fourteen doctoral students will present their research project in 3 minutes, in a clear, concise and convincing manner, before a jury composed of teacher-researchers, a journalist, a representative of the economic world and a scientific mediator.
In total, 3 Jury prizes and 1 public prize will be awarded. The first prize from the jury and the prize from the public will be the two winners from the Université de Lyon who will go on to the national stage of the competition.
