What’s in a poster?
An academic poster is a way of presenting scholarly research. Poster presentations are an integral part of Nipissing University’s Undergraduate Research Conference.
The biggest benefit to a poster, as opposed to an oral presentation, is that you have a lot of great interaction with conference attendees and judges – and you don’t have the pressure of a formal speech.
Environmental Geography graduate Nathan Mountain presented his research poster entitled “Volume Dependent Fissioning in Planaria” last year. The experience gave him the confidence he needed to take his poster to a larger conference in Washington, DC.
He also had a great item to add to his CV.
“Participating in the event last year helped me get into graduate school,” says Mountain, who is now working with a Nipissing University team on watershed research. “I got a taste of academic research – and I really enjoyed it. I knew I wanted to continue with it.”
Nathan’s suggestion for a great poster: “Make it concise but self-explanatory. Judges will want to have all the key information. Their discussion with you will be for the extras.”
For an idea of abstracts and posters presented last year, read the 2011 Conference Program.
