Publishing Academic Research
Top Tips From a Publisher
Publishing is the lifeblood of academic research, but getting work out into the world can often be a daunting process. Requirements of funding bodies, institutions and publishers themselves evolve constantly, so that even experienced and often-published researchers can experience difficulties.
In this RSVP Digital Event, Graduate Representative Matthew Stephens will moderate a conversation with Elizabeth Fraser and Alex Oxford of the Edinburgh University Press, who will provide expert guidance on navigating the process of publishing research in journal and book form. This session is open to all and is likely to prove especially relevant to graduate students and early-career researchers.
