Presenting a poster is a great opportunity to obtain interesting and valuable feedback for projects, research, or practices from a knowledgeable crowd. It also allows you to network with other scholars who are interested in the same topic area(s). Also, you are able to practice public speaking in a low-pressure, informal setting. This is an opportunity to make valuable connections with other students, faculty, staff, and community leaders. Don't forget that you can add this accomplishment to your CV or resume.
