📢 Call for Papers: IUS Graduate Research Journal (GRJ): Volume 16

The IUS Graduate Research Journal is an interdisciplinary forum for the publication of original graduate work. We strongly encourage all IU Southeast graduate students to submit their best work for inclusion in Volume 16, scheduled for publication in Spring 2026.

We welcome all types of scholarly papers, including research projects, literature reviews, case studies, and other theoretical or empirical work.

Submissions should reflect high-quality graduate scholarship and will be subject to editorial peer review.

In addition to building your resume or curriculum vitae, publication in GRJ offers the opportunity to reach a broader audience with your ideas about the issues that matter to you.

Eligibility: Submissions are welcome from current IU Southeast graduate students; students in IU collaborative graduate programs based at IUS; students from other IU campuses whose submission is based on coursework completed in an IU Southeast course; and recent alumni of IU Southeast graduate programs.

Submission Requirements: Articles should be no more than 5,000 words, including references, tables, and figures. Submissions should be final draft quality, clearly written, and thoroughly proofread. Authors must use APA, MLA, or Chicago citation style consistently (contact the Journal Manager to request an exception). Formatting should be professional and consistent throughout. All submissions must be uploaded via our online system: https://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/index.php/grj

📅 Submission Deadline: The deadline will correspond with the start of Winter Recess 2025.
