PSC 253/HAA 218 (Ibata-Arens and Hansman): Art, Politics, & Economy of the Silk Road: Research Posters

Research Posters are a tool for communicating your work visually and are very common in academic settings, particularly at conferences. At a typical poster session, attendees will walk around and view all of the posters, stopping to chat and ask questions of the researcher.

The Basics 

• The John T. Richardson Library has free poster printing for students. Standard poster size is 36"x48". 
• Design your poster using a tool like Canva, Powerpoint, or Google Slides. 
• Keep text short and clear and organize your poster to tell a story about your research. 
• Include images alongside the text. 
• Proofread before printing.
