Research posters are a great option for instructors and students interested in exploring multimodal composing. The assignment requires writers to think rhetorically about how textual content can be transferred to a new, visual environment. Since research posters are so commonplace on college campuses, there are lots of existing resources for use by faculty and students.
FIU provides printing services for use by faculty and students seeking to present their research.
There are several opportunities for students to present their undergraduate research as poster presentations.
