PSS499 (Public Safety & Security Applied Project): Oral Presentation

Module / Subject / School

PSS499 Public Safety & Security Applied Project
Singapore University of Social Sciences

Requirements

The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) was first introduced by the University of Queensland in 2008 and has since been adopted globally to encourage researchers to present their ideas clearly, concisely, and engagingly.

For this assignment:

• Each student is allocated 3 minutes to communicate their research project to a non-specialist audience.
• Students may use only a single static PowerPoint slide during their presentation.

The goal is to effectively convey key ideas in a very limited timeframe while engaging the audience.

What We Score

• 70%

Our Writer’s Comment

This assignment is not about presenting every detail of your research. Marks are awarded for:

• Clarity and focus. Clearly communicate the central idea of your project.
• Audience engagement. Present to non-specialists in a way that captures attention and understanding.
• Effective use of the slide. The single PowerPoint slide should visually support your key message without clutter.

Common challenges include:

• Overloading the slide. Too much text or excessive data distracts the audience.
• Exceeding time. Going beyond 3 minutes reduces clarity and precision.
• Weak delivery. Monotone speech or poor pacing diminishes impact.

High-scoring presentations deliver a concise, memorable, and well-supported summary of the research.

How to Strengthen Your Submission

• Focus on one key message. Identify the single most important insight or contribution of your research.
• Design a simple, clear slide. Use visuals and minimal text to reinforce your point.
• Practice delivery. Ensure timing is within 3 minutes and your speech is confident and engaging.
• Engage your audience. Avoid jargon and relate your research to everyday concepts or relevance.

Strong submissions balance clarity, visual support, and engaging delivery to convey research impact in a short time.
