Wake Forest undergraduate students present their research at the Research Day event during Family Weekend, on Friday, October 7, 2022.  Benae Clardy talks about their project.

Quick Tips

  • Pictures are better than text. The poster is meant to be a visual aid to guide your presentation.
  • If you have a lot to say, use bullets and schematics instead of full sentences.
  • Keep font size big and font simple.
  • Don’t try to be too cute. This is a professional presentation of your research. Make everything as clear as possible.
