Sign-up to Present a Poster at the Dartmouth Graduate Student Poster Session

https://dartmouth.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8u0cmty6IByXeYZ

The poster session is scheduled for Wednesday, April 4, 5-7:30 pm in Alumni Hall. Presenters must be able to attend the full session.



(Since there are limited spaces, now is the time to check with your advisor to see if s/he would like you to present. FYI… in the past, advisors have asked me why their students are not presenting.)

The poster session, scheduled for Wednesday, April 4, 5-7:30 pm in Alumni Hall is being organized as part of Graduate Student Appreciation Week and will display posters by Dartmouth graduate students. The poster session is to display to other graduate students/postdocs, undergraduate students, faculty, and administrators the research and scholarly activity currently underway at Dartmouth.

Prizes of $200 will be awarded for the top three posters.

Posters will be judged on clarity of visual presentation, as well as on how well the poster presenter can talk (briefly, 3 minutes!) about his/her work in terms understandable by a non-specialist (though the poster itself may be highly technical). In addition, only one presenter per poster.

**** Poster Size****
We encourage you to use the School of Graduate and Advanced Studies Logo on your posters.
FYI...
Your poster should be no larger than 3 feet wide by 4 feet long. If for some reason your poster is larger, then you will be responsible for making sure it hangs on the allotted space.

Please note:
Only posters will be allowed for the presentation of your work i.e. that means no use of computers or other technical equipment. Additionally, only one person can present each poster.

PRACTICE FOR YOUR POSTER PRESENTATION FOR APRIL 4th!

Learning to present your research in three minutes is especially important for networking at conferences and interviewing for postdoc positions and industry jobs.

The GRAD Office is offering a workshop where graduate students present their research to their (smart, but not expert) peers and then receive feedback on both their explanation of their topic and their presentation skills. At the end of the session, the group will cast their vote on the best presenter for a prize. Please note: no computers/ no power point. Just graduate students speaking from memory.

A light lunch will be provided.
