A total of 21 contestants from Malaysian and International universities participated in three categories namely Science & Technology, Engineering and Social Science. The competition was co-organised by Mediate Nexus and Nurture a Fast Network (MNNF Network) at the Palace of the Golden Horses Selangor, Malaysia. Thesis in 5 Minutes (T5M) is a great opportunity to effectively explain the significance of the research in language appropriate to a non-specialist audience, using only one slide.
