All-University Poster Guidelines

DIMENSIONS

  • IMPORTANT. Posters must be “portrait style” with dimensions no larger than 34” x 45” (width x height). Thumbtacks will be provided.

FORMAT

  • Poster should be readable from a distance of 2 m.
  • Title should be sentence case with lettering at least 2 cm high (72 pt).
  • Authors and affiliations should be in upper- and lower-case lettering at least
    11 mm high (42 pt).
  • Text lettering should be at least 5 mm high (18 pt) with a line thickness of at least 1 mm.

CONTENT

  • Information should be well organized and concisely presented. 
  • Keep written text to a minimum.  Bulleted short phrases are effective.  Colorful large graphs, flow charts, diagrams and photographs (half a dozen at most) are often effective.  Keep captions and legends short and informative.
  • A person who knows nothing about your scholarship should be able to understand it easily from your poster.
  • Communicate with the Student Tech Center ASAP to ensure a time for poster printing (www.wwu.edu/techcenter).

EVENT TIMELINE

  • Set-up is 8:30 – 9:00 am on the day of your poster presentation. Authors should place their poster as directed by the information desk.
  • Authors should be near their poster and available to answer questions and discuss their research as long as possible during their assigned session.
  • Please take your poster down by 3:10 pm on the day of your presentation, otherwise it will be taken down and probably discarded.
