Designing Conference Posters (Department of Engineering - Division D RDC)

Updated

Conference posters are a simple, visual, and effective way of sharing your research. They may be presented at academic or professional conferences, Departmental events, or educational events for the general public. A well-designed poster allows you to communicate information about your work in a concise and appealing manner, and engage with colleagues, peers and others in a conversational setting.

Creating a conference poster is a balancing act between including enough detail to effectively describe your work, and keeping it visually attractive and minimal enough that people can understand at least the main points at a glance.

In session 1 we will cover how to create an effective conference poster using key design principles. In session 2 and 3 you will have an opportunity to present your poster and receive feedback.
