Sociological Insight Undergraduate Research Journal--Call for Papers 2011

Sociological Insight Undergraduate Research Journal--Call for Papers 2011

Sociological Insight (SI), the undergraduate research journal at the University of Texas at Austin is calling for papers for the upcoming 2011-2012 edition.

SI is a fully refereed national undergraduate research journal aimed at promoting undergraduate research in the social sciences. Insight provides an opportunity for undergraduates all over the U.S. and abroad to publish their best academic work, and to reap the benefits of subjecting their research to a rigorous review process. 

We seek to publish recent, theory-driven, methodologically sound, professionally written academic articles which make important and relevant research findings. Each article is anonymously reviewed by three reviewers, at least one UT sociology faculty member, graduate student, and undergraduate reviewer.

We believe Insight will help to professionalize undergraduate research by providing an important service currently unavailable to undergraduate students. By engaging undergraduates in a professional peer-review process and encouraging critical thinking and scholarly excellence, Sociological Insight has become a practical stepping-stone for students aspiring to publish their work in top research journals.
