Posters

Time: Day 1 14:00 – 15:30 (Session 1), Day 2 12:30 – 14:00 (Session 2), Day 2 14:00 – 16:30 (Feedback & Prizes)
Location: Crush Hall (Session 1 & 2), Lecture Theatre (Feedback & Prizes)

The poster sessions are designed to give all PhD students an opportunity to informally discuss their research with interested colleagues. The purpose of the posters is to visually motivate interest in the research, to present sufficient information for viewers to understand the methods, results, and significance of the research, and to promote conversations and networking among conference participants.

There was two poster sessions, one on each day. The posters were judged by a panel of judges consisting of SICSA directors, workshop & keynote presenters and committee members. 

The best poster from each session was rewarded with a prize of £50, with £25 for the runner-­up.
