Do you want your class to produce a poster as part of their assignments? The Academic Technology Center is available to assist you.

We can provide instruction on poster design during class time.

We can provide individual review of posters when students drop them off for printing.

Things to consider:

Do you want the physical characteristics of the posters to be fixed or can the students choose their own dimensions?

If the posters are to be uniform.
- What are the dimensions required?
- Will they be printed on glossy or matte paper?
Will the posters need to be mounted?
- The ATC does not supply mounting boards.
- For large group presentations, like at a conference poster session, you can arrange through the Events Office to have easels and boards supplied. These boards will have a dimension of 36” x 48”.
- Mounting surfaces can also be ordered through office supply or art supply businesses. Knowing the size of a mounting surface will help you determine how large the posters need to be. Please feel free to consult with us to ensure the best possible look for posters.
Who will be paying for the posters?
- If you or your department are paying, an account number will have to be supplied to the ATC.
- If students are to be reimbursed, each student is given a receipt when paying.
- Students can be required to pay for their posters on their own.
When do you want the students to present their posters?
- Depending upon the number of students in your class, the ATC may need more than the typical two full business days guaranteed. If you have more than 10 posters being printed, please contact the ATC in advance.
