Guidlines

  • Posters can be displayed vertically or horizontally, but should not exceed 46" in either dimension. 44" is recommended to fit on the poster board without hanging off the edge. 
  • All posters should include a title banner including: 
    • Title 
    • Authors' names to include the summer participant, graduate student or post doc mentor, faculty advisor 
    • Home institution 
    • Sponsoring program

Printing

The Computer Lab in B60 Coffman* has large scale printers (HP Designjet 5000, 5500) available ($4.50 per sqft). It is highly recommendated that you print your poster at least a day in advance to avoid long lines and possible equipment issues. 
*note: printing anywhere other than Coffman B60 (e.g. printing services, kinkos) will nearly double the cost of your poster. Click here for Coffman Printing Details
