Poster Competition

Funding & Scholarships

The Sustainability Poster Competition is open to all undergraduate and graduate students registered for classes at UNCW regardless of the field of study. 

The poster competition is designed to spotlight any project, program, or research that a student has completes that supports sustainable practices and highlights the intersectionality of people, planet, and prosperity. 

This cross-disciplinary competition allows students an opportunity to display their work in an engaging format that allows an audience a quick overview of the work. Students from any discipline are encouraged to apply. 

Scholarship Opportunity

The Office of Sustainability is awarding a $300 scholarship to one winning poster from one undergraduate and one graduate student. Funding of the awards is supported from The Green Initiative Fund and community donations. 

General Guidelines

Request for submissions open the beginning of the Fall semester and close September 30. This allows participants time to work on their projects and posters before the official judging period. 

Posters will be received the beginning of the third week in November to be displayed to the public and judging panel. Any costs associated with printing should be directed to the Office of Sustainability. 

Projects should consider the following criteria:

  • Alignment with the mission and goals of the Office of Sustainability
  • Clear appearance and messaging
  • Show innovative ideas
  • Show potential for broader community or societal impacts
