The annual JIBC Applied Research Day is a great opportunity to showcase your research as well as check out the interesting applied research that JIBC is involved with. Please note that if displaying at poster events outside of JIBC, the size requirement may be different.
Tips for Research Posters
The smallest font should be 20pt
Should be able to read your poster from 1.5 - 2 metres away
White space is important - it does not all need to be filled in with text!
Use images such as diagrams, charts and photos to add to the visual impact
Spell check and have someone proofread before printing

JIBC's annual Applied Research Day is focused on student research. It is an opportunity for JIBC faculty, staff, research associates, students, grads, stakeholders, and guests to learn more about applied research through guest speakers, presentations and research updates. It is also an opportunity to showcase JIBC applied research using "speed research" sessions and poster presentations.
