While some things might be obvious about what should be included on your research poster (your name! a title!) use this checklist to think about other things that usually should be included on a humanities research poster that is intended to be presented to others.
Checklist:
- Title for your poster (is a subtitle necessary to help explain concepts?)
- Your name
- Your university affiliation
- Your home institution's logo (see video in this Guide)
- Photographs/Images (really consider the ratio of text to images in your poster)
- Infographics
- Labels for photos/images/infographics, including photo credits
- Citations (for research you used that wasn't your own)
- Your research, of course! (What it the most crucial information you want to convey? The design of your poster should support what information you want conveyed. And remember, there's limited space on your poster to convey this! Thinks strategically about what absolutely needs to be on your poster.)
