This year some thirty EPFL doctoral students have entered the Ma thèse en 180 secondes (MT180) competition.

In three minutes, each student will present his or her research topic in simple terms to a non-specialist audience, in French or English. The aim of this popularization exercise is to present a clear, concise and  yet compelling explanation of their research project, supported by a single slide !

The selections are open to the public and take place on 21, 22 and 28 JanuaryUnlike the final, the selections are not recorded for the public. Colleagues, friends, families, thesis directors, come to listen to them and encourage them!

IMPORTANT:

  • Doors open to public at 12:00
  • Selections begin at 12:15
  • The public arriving after 12:15 is asked to wait outside until the room is opened (between two presentations) so that presenters are not disturbed.
Fourteen participants will be selected by the jury for the EPFL final which will take place on 27 March 2025.
