Poster Printing Award

When students present research at a conference, the costs can add up. Through the new Poster Printing Award, the Office of Undergraduate Research hopes to help with this burden by awarding students for the cost of printing one poster. This award covers printing costs up to $120. We ask that students request only what they need to print their poster.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis during the academic year. Once funds are depleted, applications will close. 

Students will be notified if they are selected within two weeks of submission. 

Award Information

This award is intended for use by the student to print a conference poster. The OUR will not pay directly for printing. Students must either apply for the award prior to printing, or expect the award to come after they have paid the upfront cost of a poster. 

Student Payments: 

OUR will process a scholarship for the amount requested and the funding will be disbursed to student through the Scholarship Workflow system and will be applied to the student UBill.

Department Payments:

If a department is covering the initial cost of printing, OUR will transfer funds to 050 MFK account. Only an 050 account can be used, be sure you are working with your PI and administrative staff MFK may be provided after submission of this application. Funds will be transferred within 30 days of verification of the final cost of printing.

Acknowledgements

We encourage students to use their poster at multiple events, so be sure you have all your acknowledgements on it! If you are funded through the Poster Printing Award or through OUR's fellowships and grants, we do appreciate being listed in the acknowledgements. More information about acknowledgements can be found in the Poster Formatting Tips listed below.
