How to Prepare Figures for Engineering and Science Graduate Students by Assoc. Prof. Mehmet Cengiz Onbaşlı In-Person / Online

High-impact scientific figures and artwork are essential for effectively communicating research findings, capturing readers' attention, and increasing the likelihood of publication in top journals. In this hands-on training session, we will walk graduate students through the essential skills required to design high-impact scientific figures for publications and presentations. Attendees will learn how to create clear, concise, and visually compelling plots, diagrams, and illustrations that effectively convey complex data and ideas.

Key topics include core design principles—such as clarity, consistency, and readability—as well as practical tips for choosing the right plot types, organizing multi-panel figures, and enhancing accessibility with thoughtful color choices. The session also covers advanced techniques for preparing visually engaging cover figures tailored for journal submissions, highlighting strategies like storytelling, composition, and color contrast for maximum impact.

Students will be introduced to popular software tools, best practices, and common mistakes to avoid. This training is designed to help participants elevate their research presentations and improve their chances of journal acceptance. The session will conclude with a Q&A, allowing attendees to discuss their specific questions and challenges.
