Poster Session 

Open to 1st year (optional) and 2nd year Ph.D. students only and MSc students in their final term.

Guidelines for creating your research poster:

  1. Each poster board will have an area of  5′ x 3′ (152 cm by 91 cm)
  2. Less is more when it comes to text! Any text you do have needs to be legible from ~6 feet away.
  3. Include a title and all authors at the top of your poster
  4. Present a brief introduction, goals, experimental details, conclusions, and references in a logical and clear sequence. Keep it as concise as possible.
  5. A poster should contain the highlight of your work. Therefore, more photos/figures and diagrams (with legible axes and titles) are preferred over texts.
  6. Make it visually appealing: colour is preferred over black and white. Use accessibility-friendly colours, e.g. avoid pairing red and green elements.
