The Office of Undergraduate Research hosts an End-of-Quarter Poster Session every quarter except summer. For faculty who include projects or poster presentations in courses, this is a great opportunity to gain a wider audience for your students' work and for students to practice poster presentations in a slightly more formal setting than the classroom, but not as formal as SOURCE.
Who can participate
Any CWU course where students make posters is eligible to participate, and the sessions are open to the CWU community.
When and where it takes place
The poster session takes place in the foyer of Science the last week of classes—not finals week—of fall, winter, and spring quarters. Instructors can request a day and time (or multiple times) for their course using this request form.
We post a schedule of poster sessions every quarter.
What is provided
Poster stands and pushpins are provided by the OUR, and the poster stands will be set up in advance of your session. We have twelve 42" x 66" poster stands, which may accommodate up to 24 large posters (using both sides of each stand) or many more small-sized ones. Please ask students to leave the pins on the board after their presentations.
How to print posters
The Multimodal Education Center prints color posters at a reasonable price ($1.00 per square foot). Students can submit their posters for printing (please allow 3 days, minimum).
