2012-13 Research Poster Contest

Students are invited to submit a research poster to the annual research poster contest. Each poster should present individual or group research conducted in the CIS department. Winners will be selected by a faculty committee. The posters are judged based on their technical content, design clarity and visual appeal. Authors of top three posters will receive prizes from the department. All posters will be on display in the department hallways during the school year. If you have any questions or require further information email Jim Allen (jallen@cs).

RESOURCES

The main goal of this competition is to help you prepare a research poster (visually appealing and succinct) that effectively communicates your research problem, techniques, results, and what is novel and important about your work. To help you achieve this goal and avoid some common problems that we observed in submitted posters in prior competitions, we have collected the following useful resources:
