You may choose either portrait or landscape orientation, but the size can be no larger than 36” x 48” or48” x 36” in order to fit in the space available.
Some guidelines when preparing your poster:
• Include: Title, names, and department. Email contact is usual but not required
• All text must be readable. Minimum of 24pt font for body text and larger for headings
• All figures should be large enough to see and interpret from a distance – that includes font sizes for labels and scales
• Acknowledgements should include: collaborators, coworkers and importantly funding sources
• Citations should include essential references to past published or web-sourced works that informed your research
• Work with your advisor / mentor as you prepare your poster.
