Poster Competition

Sennott Square 5th and 6th Floors

We are now accepting entries for the CS Day Poster Competition!

Certificates and prizes will be awarded to the best posters. In each category (i.e., grad and undergrad) a grand prize winner and runner-up will be selected by faculty judges, and a "people's choice" winner voted by attendees to CS-Day who will be filling out a short contest form themselves.

While students are encouraged to highlight their personal research, we will be allowing multiple authors for the posters as in last year's competition. The contest will be open to undergraduate and graduate students. Individual undergraduates as well as small groups are encouraged to participate and submit posters for consideration.

As with last year, we would like all submissions to be electronic. This should be easier on most of the students and will allow us to print all competing posters consistently prior to CS Day. The path to the submission folder is listed below in the Submission Deadline information.

Poster Details:

*The poster should be approximately 24 x 36 inches (and should include a clear title and author name).
*Format is preferably PPT or PDF.

*Please allow for a small "number" label to be attached in the lower right hand corner (i.e. when such a label is attached - no larger than 2x2 inches - it should not obscure important information).


Submission Deadline:

  • Submission Deadline: Thursday, March 18th, 2010 - 9:00 a.m.
  • Please try to name the submitted PPT or PDF file in a manner that would identify the contact author (e.g., using the pitt.edu username as part of the filename), even if the poster itself should contain this information.
  • Posters by an undergraduate, or a group of undergraduates should be submitted to /afs/cs.pitt.edu/public/incoming/csday-posters/ugrad
  • Posters that include graduate student authors should be submitted to /afs/cs.pitt.edu/public/incoming/csday-posters/grad

For all entries, every submission must make a primary contact, and at least one author needs to be available for questions for a one-hour period on CS Day (specific details on this will be announced closer to the deadline, but all graduate students who can should make an effort to attend regardless so please encourage your students to do so).



Please direct questions to Dr. Adam Lee.
