As a major aspect of academic publishing, posters are an integral part of almost every scientific conference. Their purpose is to highlight and visualise research results as effectively as possible and invite discussion. The two-part workshop focuses on the conveyance of design and presentation skills and on the practical training how to apply these skills for an effective knowledge transfer.
The first part of the workshop covers the key principles of design and layout such as typography, colour, proportion, visualisation, grids etc. Participants also learn how to conceive and develop a clearly structured poster by reducing the scientific content to the most significant points. The second part takes essential presentation skills into focus, such as main aspects of verbal and non-verbal communication, dramaturgy, structure, clarification and reduction.
The seminar is rounded off with the training of short poster presentations in a virtual setting combined with a video recording and constructive trainer and group feedback.
Qualification Goals
Part 1 provides the input enabling participants to design a compelling academic poster and Part 2 the platform to effectively train a pitch-presentation for a virtual setting.
Participation requirements
- internet-enabled laptop, equipped with PowerPoint
- content material (text, pictures, graphics) for your poster
- stable WLAN, suitable sound and video transmission facilities

*Creditability within the kick-off seminar
For reasons of respect and fairness towards all participants and the workshop leaders, participants who miss more than 10% of the workshop are considered not to be present. You will therefore not receive a certificate and you will not be able to use the workshop in question to unlock funds or acquire further qualifications.
