New class: Mastering the art of poster design
We’re very excited to announce a new class: mastering the art of poster design! In this class, you’ll learn basic design principles, Adobe Illustrator (powerful graphics software), and communication skills. And yes, you will make a poster!
Putting together compelling posters is an essential job skill for academics. At a time when succeeding in academia is tougher than ever, standing out from the crowd with your conference poster is key. Unfortunately, very few academics receive any training on how to put together a compelling poster that will actually make your colleagues pay attention.
That’s where SciFund Challenge comes in with our class in effective poster design. Over five weeks, you’ll learn the basics of graphic design and how to use Adobe Illustrator. Even better, you’ll be putting your new design learning to work from the start: at the end of the class, you’ll have a poster of your research ready to go.
