Guidlines
Posters must be 3 ft x 5 ft or smaller in size. You are responsible for transporting the poster to and from the conference and setting it up.
Things to keep in mind when designing your poster:
- All parts of the poster (including axis labels!) should be easily readable from at least 3 feet away
- Good posters have a clear logical sequence, e.g. introduction, study design and methods, data collected, conclusion
- To ensure visual effectiveness of your poster, use large lettering and a minimum of text
- Poster content should be scientifically rigorous while still accessible to undergraduate physics students; avoid jargon when possible
Judging
Posters will be judged on the following points:
- Clarity of the purpose of the project
- Explanation of the incorporated method
- Development to the conclusion or predicted future work
- Effective oral presentation of the project and answer to presented questions
- Adequate use of words in the poster
