Design of scientific poster

Scientific posters are an essential part of most conferences and an important medium for presenting your own results.

In order to be able to communicate the core of your own research in the usually short time available, it makes sense to deal with the design of posters. Medical students can find out more about this, for example, in the Science Skills Lab or the SEMERA program.

There can also be subject-specific differences in the design of posters. Consult the relevant subject-specific resources or talk to experienced scientists in your field.

You can find a concrete suggestion for the structure of scientific posters in this video:

Formalities and printing

If a scientific poster is to be created and then printed in the photo department, this is only possible if the corporate design of the University Hospital RWTH Aachen or that of RWTH Aachen University is adhered to. Further information and templates on the subject of corporate design can be found here or on the intranet. The finished poster can then be sent as a pdf to fotoabteilung@ukaachen.de for printing.

Orientation also provides you with a short video with the most important information on the procedure.
