Submission Guidelines for Authors

Authorship Requirements: The Journal is intended to be a forum for publishing original research by undergraduate students. Anyone is eligible to submit papers to the journal provided (a) the research was done while the author was enrolled as an undergraduate at a nationally accredited college or university, and (b) the article is published within a year of the author receiving her or his undergraduate degree.

Sponsorship Requirement: All articles must be sponsored by a professor or instructor from the author's college or university who has overseen the research. When a paper is submitted for review the author will be required to submit the sponsor's name and email address. The sponsor will be notified and will then need to go online and indicate his or her support of the author and verify that the work is the author's own.
