What will you learn?

In this workshop, you'll gain the skills needed to create clear and visually appealing scientific posters.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

  • Understanding basic design principles to improve visual appeal and readability.
  • Conveying research objectives, methods, results, and conclusions clearly and efficiently.
  • Drafting your own poster with real-time feedback to refine your approach.
  • Analyzing successful examples to identify what makes them effective.

Target audience

This workshop is primarily designed for PhD students and postdoctoral researchers at the Faculty of Social Sciences (SV) University of Oslo. It is also open to other researchers if space permits.

Preparations

All participants must bring a draft of the poster they intend to develop, as this will be the primary focus of the workshop. The draft can be in any format—digital (any software) or hand-drawn on paper—and does not need to be complete. This workshop emphasizes design thinking to improve your draft, rather than instructing on specific software use. It's crucial that you bring this draft, as you will be actively working on refining it during the session.
