The posters will be judged by faculty based on the following criteria:

- Sound research methodology
- Clear presentation of results/product/performance or expected outcome and ability to answer questions
- Progress on the project to date
- Contribution to the field or discussion of the potential impact
Suggested Presentation Guidelines
The purpose of the poster should be to engage audience members in a discussion of the research. Projects will be displayed on science fair poster boards. Students will be provided with science fair boards and the supplies needed to decorate them (e.g., scissors, glue, markers, colored paper). Posters should have a title and list of authors and their affiliations at the top. The poster should include a copy of the abstract. The body of the poster should be self-explanatory and include an appropriate balance of text and graphics in describing the research project or activity. Graphic components may include data tables, graphs, photographs or diagrams and should be labeled to communicate their significance.
Students who wish to present posters must register by听Monday, April 1, 2024.听The project poster submission deadline is听Monday, April 15, 2024.
