Additional Support

If you would like additional support with designing your poster or using software such as Canva or PowerPoint, the University Library Academic Poster LibGuide is a useful starting point:
Please note that this guide is intended as support and signposting only; it is not prescriptive. There is no single “correct” way to design your poster, so you are encouraged to be as creative as you wish while clearly communicating your ideas and research.
If you have any questions or require any further support with your posters, please do reach out to the Mercian Conference team at mercianconference@gmail.com
