UCEA Publishing Session

Session Title: Publish and Thrive: Steps to Jumpstart the Publishing Process

Graduate students know how important it is to become published, but how is it done? Aside from completing coursework and comprehensive examinations, graduate students -particularly first and second year doctoral students - often contemplate the steps necessary to become a respected and tenured scholar. Thoughts of establishing a solid research agenda and quality publications are often met with uncertainty and trepidation among aspiring academics. A panel of published scholars will provide stories and advice to help make the publishing process feel less intimidating for doctoral students. This particular session will provide beginning and mid-career doctoral students a space to engage in rich discourse with established scholars as well as emergent scholars regarding the “How To’s” of: (a) developing a research agenda, (b) publishing as a student, and (c) publishing as junior faculty. Secondly, we hope to take the fear out of the “Publish or Perish” maxim by providing future scholars with the steps they need to follow in order to jumpstart the process and thrive in the area of publishing.

Call for Recent and Upcoming Publications

We would like to invite Division A graduate students to submit reference citation(s) for their recent or upcoming publications. If you are interested in having your work included in a feature section of the next Division A newsletter, please submit your APA-formatted reference citation to [email protected].
