• Dr. George Hess short (5 week) course on creating scientific posters
  In the course, I teach techniques for effective communication using
  a poster. Each student will develop a poster describing his or her
  research, so students should have research results that they want
  to report. Details on the web site at: http://courses.ncsu.edu/for610e/common/
