    Poster Tips

    Here is a file with some help on how to make a poster. You can also see a presentation on how to make a poster. Thanks to Dr. Leah Gold from CSU for both files. Judges will be using a judging rubric when judging your poster.

    Here are some important things that you should have in your poster:

    Title. This should be large (readable from across the room), try 60-65 point font.

    Acknowledgements. Logos of sponsors. You should have a Kent logo as well as the COF logo. This generally goes at the top of the poster. You should also acknowledge somewhere on the poster anyone who assisted you with equipment or significant time or assistance.

    Author list. A list of authors should be below the title, generally in a slightly smaller font, say 48-52 point. For your groups, you should list the authors in alphabetical order. You should list your faculty advisor below the authors.
