Poster Design Guidelines
1. Format
Use a single sheet of heavy-duty paper or other flexible material. Posters should measure approximately 4 ft. × 4 ft. Do not attach individual PowerPoint slides or manuscript pages to a poster board.
2. Content Simplicity
Clearly present the 3–4 main concepts of your project. Avoid excessive text or complex
formulas. The poster should serve as a visual summary, not a detailed report.
3. Text Layout
Use bullet points or concise text blocks with clear subheadings.
Recommended font sizes:
28–36 pt bold sans serif font (e.g., Arial, Helvetica) for headings
18–24 pt for body text
4. Structure
Organize content in a column format, arranged logically from top left to bottom right. A
three-column layout is ideal for readability.
5. Text-to-Visual Balance
Maintain a balance of approximately 50% text and 50% visuals (e.g., charts, photos,
illustrations). Avoid text-heavy designs, which tend to be overlooked.
6. Clarity of Language
Use simple, accessible language. Avoid acronyms, abbreviations, and technical jargon
whenever possible.
7. Design and Readability
Use light-colored backgrounds with dark text for maximum contrast.
Ensure graphics and visuals are high-contrast and clearly legible.
Stick to a simple 2–3 color palette for graphics.
All visuals should be at least 300 dpi and easily readable from 3 feet away.
8. Credits and Attribution
Include author name(s), institutional logos, and any relevant acknowledgements.
9. Oral Presentation Requirement
Prepare a short oral presentation to explain your poster to small audiences. You are expected to be present and actively engaged during the official poster session on 8/8 (Friday), 4:30–6:30 PM at International Ballroom A,B,C,D.
Failure to present may result in disqualification from travel support.
