- Tips for creating posters
- Making the poster in programs like Adobe InDesign or Canva is also an option, as long as the size/dimensions are the same (printable A1 size / 59,4cm x 84,1 cm / 9933 x 7016 px) and you adhere to the policies for using the SLU logo.
About me
Take the chance to promote yourself to future employers and colleagues in your contact section of the poster.
- Include a QR code linking to your LinkedIn profile page
Include a short presentation about yourself in the "About" section on LinkedIn. - E-mail address
Use a personal address, not the student one, to ensure it works post graduation.
