• Posters will be mounted on display stands in the lobby of Maxwell Dworkin during the day on Thursday, May 7, 2009.

• Suggested Formatting and Handouts (see figure).

Sample Poster Layout

The poster should be set up as 34 inches across and 42 inches in length. The file format needs to be either PowerPoint or PDF and please leave at least 1.5” as a border around the poster.

Titles should be informative and written in a large, readable font such as Arial 100 point bold. The next line should list faculty (and have 2 or more names to emphasize collaborative work) in a readable font, i.e., 72 point Arial bold. The next line should list all other contributors in the readable 72 point Arial regular. Shown in the figure are the desired elements of a short statement of:

  • Research Goals
  • Outcomes for Technology and Society (big picture)
  • Compelling Graphics to attract the eye
  • Approach, Instrumentation and Facilities
  • Future Work

We also ask that you prepare letter-size (8.5 x 11) handouts of the poster to give to the visitors with your contact information: e-mail, telephone, and website address, as appropriate.

Please bring the handouts with you for the poster session.
