What should my poster include?

All posters should have a title banner including:

• Title
• Authors' names to include summer participant name underlined, graduate student or post doc mentor, faculty advisor
• Home institution
• Sponsoring Program (e.g. MRSEC, Lando, etc)

Is there a template?

Each program will likely have a preferred template. Please check with your program director.

Where can I print my poster?

Paper Poster
The Computer Lab in B60 Coffman* has large scale printers (HP Designjet 5000, 5500) available. 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, fedex) will nearly double the cost of your poster
