Are you a graduate student working on preparing a journal article for publication? Learn more about the Graduate Student Journal Article Writing Group!

The writing group runs each Spring semester (approximately January - April), with weekly topics including:

  • Time Management

  • Literature Review

  • Citation Management

  • Journal Selection

  • And more!

The program is mostly run asynchronously, though participants are required to attend one weekly synchronous writing session, with multiple sessions being offered each week. We will be using Wendy Laura Belcher’s book Writing Your Journal Article in Twelve Weeks to help facilitate discussions and writing.

If you are interested in joining, please consider attending one of the upcoming Zoom information sessions where we will discuss how the program will run, the expected time commitment, and answer any other questions you may have about the group.

Have interest in joining the group? Please submit our interest form. Registration will open later in Fall.

If you have questions, please contact Catherine Baird, bairdc@montclair.edu.

If you are a current Montclair graduate student who is interested in a paid micro-internship to help run this initiative, please complete the application.
