Poster Presentation Guidelines
Size and Mounting:
The poster size must be NO GREATER THAN 48 inches by 48 inches
The ECSS committee will provide with easels and poster boards on which you will
place your poster.
Posters may be set up between 2pm and 4pm on Friday, March 27th, 2009 in the Business Building atrium.
Please refer to Directions to find the exact location.
Participants will be instructed in detail on where to place their posters.
The posters have to be taken down after the Award Ceremony on Saturday, March 28th, 2009.
Audience:
Posters should be prepared to reach an interdisciplinary scientific audience. You may assume the audience has
basic scientific knowledge, but do not assume the audience is intimately familiar with your specific field or jargon commonly used in your field.
You should, therefore, either avoid that jargon or define and explain acronyms, terms, and concepts.
Judging:
Please refer to the Awards menu on this website to familiarize yourself with the Judging Criteria for this category.
Hints:
Try to keep it simple.
Avoid overcrowding the poster with too much information. Use and include only information that serves to support and clarify your main message.
Avoid long sections of text (bulleted points are easier to read than long paragraphs). Keep graphs simple and make sure they are quick to
understand.
The font of your text should be large enough to read from at least 5 feet away. We recommend that font size be 24 pt or larger.
Thank you for your participation and good luck!
