 Grading and Evaluation Guidelines

1. Scoring & Weighting Mechanism

To ensure objectivity, consistency, and fairness in evaluation, the following grading criteria have been established for the committee's reference. The poster exhibition will be conducted as a competition.

• Faculty Review: All faculty members within the college who advise MPH students are invited to serve as judges (Faculty will recuse themselves from grading their own students' posters).

• Peer Review: Graduate students will also participate in peer evaluation (Students will recuse themselves from grading their own posters).

• Weighting: The final score is weighted as 60% Faculty Evaluation (adjusted via Z-score normalization) and 40% Peer Evaluation (adjusted via Z-score normalization).

2. Grading Tiers

The grading tiers are classified into three categories. Judges may assign scores to the posters they recommend (no scoring is required for posters that are not recommended):

• A+ (Highly Recommended): 90–100 points

• A (Recommended): 85–89 points

• B (Honorable Mention): 80–84 points
