Event description

Title: 'Publishing and reviewing in international journals'.

Ref:       LDRES412/2

This session is suitable for researchers and PhD students and will guide authors through the process of writing and reviewing papers for international journals.  To help authors succeed in publishing, the workshop will give guidelines for the nature of papers published and the content of each section, based on the presenters' great experience of writing, editing and refereeing papers.

By the end of the event, participants will have a clearer understanding of:

·           the process of creating a paper,
·           the nature and attractiveness of the title, contents of the Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion sections,
·           the features looked for by editors,
·           ways of presenting information to make a paper more citable, valuable and attractive,
·           why papers may be rejected outright by international peer-reviewed journals,
·           citation indices and impact factors,
·           the means of choosing referees, the role and responsibility of referees, the way to referee a paper and the ways to help the editors,
·           the role and responsibility of the editors,
·           the process of publishing a paper from submission to appearing in print,
·           how to referee papers and the process and the importance of refereeing.

Led by: Professor Mike Elliott and Professor Victor de Jonge, Institute of Estuarine and Coastal Studies.

Location: To be confirmed by email to you before the event.

This session is being run by the University’s Research and Innovation Team and is open to both research staff and research students. Please do not book onto this session if you have no intention of attending. Thank you.

The Skills Development and Social Forum will also provide regular opportunities for socialising with other postgraduate students, facilitating collaboration with peers across the disciplines and subjects in a supportive and friendly environment. The forum will:

  • Enable students to feel part of a welcoming Postgraduate Researcher community.
  • Provide students the opportunity to learn from the experiences of others including professionals from within and outside the University, post doctoral researchers, experienced academics, and "senior" PhD students from the University.
  • Provide a range of development opportunities for PhD students to share their experience with other PhD students, and to develop a range of general skills including: presentation, public speaking, public engagement, teamwork, leadership and group work.  
  • Enable students to positively influence a wide range of support services and facilities.  

These sessions cover topics that have been requested by students. 

They are in addition to the formal sessions offered by various teams within the University. 

They cover topics that students would like a little more information on, a short useful summary or sign-posting session if you like, or an opportunity to hear about somebody else's research journey.  

The sessions are not compulsory, it is your choice to attend. They are centrally organised by the Graduate School, 

Please note these sessions are not intended to replace:

  1. Any of the modules offered as part of the PGTS (Post Graduate Training Scheme).  You should still attend the sessions that your department recommends for you or that are compulsory as part of your particular study route.
  2. Any formal skills sessions that your individual school or faculty runs for PhD/PGR students.
  3. The Skills Development Workshops for Postgraduate Students offered by the Library Skills Team.
  4. Formal CPD sessions for the professional development of University staff that are organised by the Staff Development Team or Learning Enhancement and Academic Practice (LEAP).
