Winter 2026: CTM Poster Day will be held on April 2, 2026, beginning at 9:00 a.m.

This is an in-person event taking place in the Atrium at Roger Guindon Hall 
(451 Smyth Road).

You will need to prepare a poster and present it to two evaluators.

Each presentation should be a 10-minute summary of your progress so far, followed by a 5-minute discussion with both evaluators.

You will be evaluated based on the following information:

• The background information and a rationale for the work
• A clear hypotheses and objectives
• The clarity of methodology
• The most important findings and interpretations
• An analysis of results with conclusions that relate back to the objectives
  (The same rubric used at Seminar Day will be used on Poster Day - you can find it in Brightspace)

You will also be evaluated on your ability to describe your work and your ability or answer questions.
