SUMMARY:Preparing Poster Presentations
DESCRIPTION:
 A poster presentation requires a very different 
 approach than a research report on the same 
 work. Your poster needs to be visually appealing, 
 draw in the viewer, and convey your purpose 
 and findings in a concise, direct manner. 
 Dr. Tom Wolff, Associate Dean of the College 
 of Engineering, has judged engineering project 
 posters for many years. He will speak about 
 layout, communication, and people's perceptions 
 of typeface and graphic design. Workshop 
 participants will review examples of posters 
 -- both good and not-so-good -- and consider 
 common pitfalls. Discussion of the function 
 of a poster session as a vehicle for sharing 
 your work with visitors and judges will conclude 
 the workshop. This workshop will be especially 
 useful for students preparing for the 
 University Undergraduate Research and Arts Forum 
 (UURAF). Sponsored by the Undergraduate Research 
 Office.\n\n
