Pre-Publication Considerations: Publishing your Research Effectively for STEM PhD Students

Picking where to publish your research and in what format is an important decision to make. This session looks at the things you need to consider during this process.

We’ll look the types of indicators you might want to use to assess the appropriateness of a journal for your research, such as Journal Impact Factor, publisher fees and publication times. We’ll also discuss issues surrounding copyright – who should own the copyright to your work and how you can use other people’s copyrighted material. This is a ‘bring your own device’ session where you can browse the resources available as we guide you through how to use them.
