Yes, it’s true – our poster competition is BACK in 2022!
The theme for British Science Week 2022 poster competition is ‘Growth’.
The deadline for entering the competition is 6pm on the 15 April 2022.
Submit your entry using the BSW Poster competition entry form.
Your poster could explore a tadpole’s journey into a fully grown adult frog, or look at the ways population growth is affecting the planet. For inspiration on poster ideas, check out the 2021 winners here!
How will the posters be judged?
We wish that everyone could be a winner, but we only have a limited number of prizes. So, here’s the lowdown on what the judges will be looking for:
– Creativity in approach – Innovative angle on the content or creative interpretation of the theme
- – Content – Clear, accurate and informative about a STEM topic
- – Effective communication – presented and communicated in an engaging way
Members of the British Science Association will shortlist entries, and a panel of judges will select a winner in each category. The two runners up in each category will be uploaded to our Facebook page and the public will decide on a fifth ‘popular vote’ winner.
