MTPC invites all Registered HKUST Student Groups to submit digital posters promoting their activities. The posters will be showcased across a wide range of digital displays on campus. Every submission will receive a souvenir and will be eligible for both a Lucky Draw and the Design Competition.
Procedures
- Submit your poster using the Poster Submission Form. To participate in the Design Competition, simply check the "Join Competition" option. All digital poster submissions will be entered into the Lucky Draw by default.
- Collect your souvenir at Creative Media Zone (CMZ), LG1 Library after your poster submission has been confirmed via email. (Opening hours – Monday to Friday: 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM – 5:30 PM)
- To encourage design diversity, each student group may submit up to 4 poster designs for a single event (see Definition), each in a different display format (e.g., horizontal notice board, vertical notice board, L-Shape LED, and transparent LED). Each unique format will count as an individual entry in the Lucky Draw and in the Design Competition.
- To ensure fair opportunities for all participants, each event can win only one Lucky Draw prize and one Design Competition prize.
