Presentations & Printing
Presentation Templates
Presentation templates are available for students, faculty, and alumni use at professional or scientific meetings. Each template has modifiable headings and content but provides general guidelines for traditional poster presentations. Presentations related to all research, capstone, or coursework activities completed at RMU should include the RMU logo. Students MUST seek faculty or administrative approval (as appropriate) prior to using a poster template. This will allow the students to both learn from the faculty mentor and display the best quality poster presentation. Additionally, PowerPoint templates are available for general use.
Questions related to original research and presentation should be directed to the appropriate faculty, Graduate Program Director, or Director of Research.
