Student Poster Session Guidelines

The Student Poster Session will be visited by many GT India Conference participants, who encompass a large variety of technical expertise and come from several different backgrounds. To maximize the impact of your poster presentation, please ensure that your poster is clear, concise and suitable for a wide range of audience members. Each student can submit a maximum number of two (2) poster abstracts as an author for the upcoming ASME GT India Conference 2023. If for any reason, the same author submits more than two poster abstracts, the first two will proceed to the review process and the rest will be discarded.

The following guidelines should help you prepare your poster:

  1. You must print and bring your own copy of your poster to present in the exhibition hall. There will be no poster printing services at GT India Conference 2023.

  2. The recommended size of your poster is 44 inches x 36 inches or ISO/DIN A0 in portrait Orientation. There is no standard template that you are required to use as long as the size and orientation requirements are met.

  3. Please include your poster ID at the top of your poster.

  4. Your poster should include a clear statement of the problem you are addressing, essential experimental details, key results and a simple summary/conclusions and key references.

  5. Text should be minimized. Judges and attendees will have little time to read many details. The title text should be readable from 6 m (20 ft) away (~90-point text). The body text on your poster should be large enough to be legible at 1.5 m (5 ft) away (~36-point text).

  6. Figures and tables should be large and clear. Do the graphs include clearly labelled axes, clear legend, and a short clear title? Is the resolution of the images adequate (Minimum~300 dpi)?

  7. Posters should be self-explanatory; they should not require additional verbal explanations. Your verbal presentation should work only to enhance the content of your poster.

  8. Posters will be judged on technical content, use of scientific method, potential impact on the community, novelty of approach, aesthetic quality of the poster and the verbal presentation. The use of expensive and elaborate materials is discouraged.

  9. Please prepare a short (3-minute) oral summary of your poster and give these summaries to the audience at your poster. Your summary of your work will enable the audience to understand your work better and will encourage them to ask specific questions.
