3MT Competition Finalists
The 2021 Spring 3MT Competition features 18 outstanding graduate student finalists from programs across Radford University and Radford University Carilion! Finalists were selected based on their completion of a rigorous application process.
In a 3MT Competition, graduate students share their research, creative work, or practical/clinical experiences with a wider audience. The catch? Finalists must speak for only three minutes with the aid of only one slide, and they must record their presentation in only one, continuous take.
