Publishing for Early Career Researchers

Abstract

Publishing is an essential part of academic life, yet it can often be a daunting process to navigate for PhD students and early career researchers. In this session, the editors of the ECPR Gold Open Access Journal, Political Research Exchange (PRX), will discuss the key steps in the publication process. They will offer an editor’s perspective on academic publishing and give practical advice on getting from preparation to submission to publication. The session is geared towards PhD students and early career scholars looking to submit their first publications. You are encouraged to ask questions on topics including how to pick a journal, how editors handle manuscripts, and how to deal with reviewer comments.
