Publishing in academic journals: tips for getting published during your candidature

Publishing in academic journals during your PhD or Masters by Research candidature is an effective way to share your research and build your profile. This practical workshop aims to maximise your chances of publication by guiding you through fundamental publishing strategies.

The workshop will cover the publishing process, from initial planning and identifying suitable journals, to manuscript writing, and effectively negotiating the peer review process and addressing feedback. You will have the opportunity to look up the submission requirements of a leading journal in your field and brainstorm a potential article for publication.
