Poster Specifications

Your team must prepare two posters: (1) a technical poster that describes your project (a sort of photograph that shows your entire project at a glance and (2) a graphics poster whose artwork and catchy slogan creatively embody the Challenge program. You will need to bring both of these to display at Awards Day. The posters may be no larger than 22 by 30 inches (standard poster-board size) and can be hand-drawn, designed on a computer, or created by a combination of methods.

The poster must be comprised of original artwork and text! You may not copy or borrow pictures, artwork, slogans, etc. from any outside source. At Awards Day, all of the Challenge participants will judge the poster entries and select the winners for both categories. The poster that best displays the technical information about a project will serve as the cover for the publication of the compiled finalists' reports. The best graphics poster will serve as the Challenge logo for the next year, appearing on Challenge letterhead, T-shirts, book bags, and Web site. This year there is a $200 award for the individual(s) who design the winning graphics poster.
