Poster Competition Rules
- Each poster needs no greater than 3.5 x 3 feet. Foam boards or bulletin boards will be provided on site. Push pins will also be available. Posters can be in color or black and white. Landscape or a vertical format for the poster is fine.
- Suggested topics to include in the posters include a Title (project title, author names, and affiliations), Abstract, Project Objectives, Background, Materials and Methods, Theory, Results, Conclusions, and Future Plans.
- A large font is recommended – use at least 18 point font. Lengthy paragraphs are hard to read, so bulleted lists are encouraged. Photographs, graphs, and schematics are best with descriptive figure titles.
- Make sure the poster is easy to read and not overcrowded.
- Posters and presenters will be judged by a panel of well-qualified industrial representative, faculty, and/or AIChE local section members. These judges’ decisions are final.
- This competition does not determine eligibility for the national competition.
- Cash prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place overall.
- Categories may be created depending on number of entries.
- Student authors may participate in both the paper and poster competitions; however an award in the paper competition may disqualify the author from an award in the poster competition.
- There are no limits on the number of participants.
