Publishing in journals - for researchers in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences Prerequisites
Publishing journal articles is a key element of a successful research career. As you are starting on this journey, you may have a lot of questions, for example:
- Where and how should I publish my research?
- How do I maximise the number of readers and citations?
- How should I respond to reviewers?
Please note: This session will be offered, either online or in person, in Michaelmas, Lent and Easter terms.
- PhD students in HASS subjects
- Other PhD students and researchers also welcome
To make the most out of this session, please complete the pre-work and bring your notes with you. You will examine some examples of peer review and author's responses, which should take 30-40 minutes.
