What will you learn?
In this workshop, you will gain the skills needed to create clear and visually appealing scientific posters.
Here is what we will cover in the workshop:
- Understanding basic design principles to improve visual appeal and readability.
- Conveying research objectives, methods, results, and conclusions clearly and efficiently.
- Drafting your own poster with real-time feedback to refine your approach.
- Analyzing successful examples to identify what makes them effective.
Target audience
This workshop is open for second-year master's students that have progressed with data collection and analysis in their research project, PhD students and postdoctoral researchers at the University of Oslo. Students or young researchers from the partners of The Future of Energy conference, IFE, NGI, BI and Sintef are also welcome to join.
Requirements
To participate in the workshop and present your poster in the conference, your research must cover one or more of UiO:Energy and Environment's main research areas. We welcome all disciplines to participate, as long as your research fits within these areas.
To be eligible to present at The Future of Energy conference, you must submit your poster by December 20 for print. All costs related to the workshop and printing process are covered by UiO:Energy and Environment.
Preparations
All participants must bring a draft of the poster they intend to develop, as this will be the primary focus of the workshop. The draft can be in any format—digital (any software) or hand-drawn on paper—and does not need to be complete.
This workshop emphasizes design thinking to improve your draft, rather than instructing on specific software use. It's crucial that you bring this draft, as you will be actively working on refining it during the session.
