All PhD & M.Phil students are strongly encouraged to submit a poster and attend the exhibition and reception with their advisors. This initiative is intended as a modest attempt to begin to build a better culture of research in the School. We see it as only requiring a small contribution from each of us to make what should be an enjoyable event. The idea is for all the research students and staff meet one another and see the kinds of work that we do in a semi-social setting over a drink. While such an event cannot expose the full merits and significance of our research, we believe that all our more specific efforts to build research culture must be founded on a degree of common collegiate feeling and interest in one another's work. We look forward to seeing everyone on 24th August.


Participants should nominate themselves to Patrick Moss (patrick.moss@uq.edu.au) by Monday 15th August and arrange for printing by the School if required. Participants need to bring posters for hanging at 2pm on 24th August. It will not be possible to incorporate late submissions.


Poster format - A2 size (420 x 594 mm with 12 mm margins to allow for trimming) and resolution of 300 DPI.

All posters should contain: Title of Research; Student name; Program Area or Centre Affiliation within the School; Advisors; Confirmed or Provisional Status; & Description of Research. No more than 30% text with images designed to encapsulate the student's research topic for a broad academic audience.

If requested with good notice, the School will provide materials and assistance for the production of the posters from a PFD file of 300dpi resolution. Queries about the content of the poster and arrangements for printing should be directed to Patrick Moss (patrick.moss@uq.edu.au) or Anthony Gall (a.gall@uq.edu.au) by Monday 15th August.
