Designing Conference Posters (Department of Engineering - MPhil in Engineering for Sustainable Development) BeginnersUpdated
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.
This module will help you create effective conference posters and introduce key design principles.
Session 1 - is the workshop on how to make posters Session 2 - peer review session on the posters the students have created.
