Tips for Presenting Your Research
The primary goal of a research poster is to present a clear and engaging visual display of your project. The general recommended poster size is 36″ tall by 48″ wide, although you may display a poster from previous professional presentations that may differ in size. UF College of Pharmacy poster templates can be found here.
Your research poster should be organized, concise, and visually appealing. When describing your work, focus on providing an overview to your audience rather than minute details. Highlight what your research aims to discover and its significance. Be prepared to respond to questions such as “Tell me about your research,” and anticipate inquiries from faculty judges and peers. Planning ahead will help you effectively communicate your findings and engage your audience.
All posters must be reviewed and approved by the faculty advisor/PI before printing.
Students may print posters on campus through the GatorPrint office. Additional tips for printing a poster presentation can be found here.
