Getting your research published in journals: exploring the recent world trends and disclosing the major formal and informal rules
It is obviously that researchers are concerned very much how to make the research results public. Recently, conferences, research workshops, seminars give a chance to the researchers to succeed in this way. At the same time, publishing the research results as a paper is still a most powerful tool to promote the researchers and research results. The world of publishing is the world with basic standards, so called “rules in written” and researchers should know these rules. At the same time there are many rules which are rather informal and many researchers are not familiar with them. This concerns younger researchers, PhD researchers in particular, as well as experienced because the world of scientific journals publishing is changing dramatically.
The course “Getting your research published in journals: exploring the recent world trends and disclosing the major formal and informal rules” is about how to have the up-to-date knowledge in the field of economic journal publishing to let the younger and experienced researchers succeed in publishing their papers in the reputable journals. For example, PhD students will benefit from this course absolutely in the way of having very certain recommendations how to make the process of submission of the papers successful. The course will give info how to choose the appropriate journals for submitting the paper, how to identify the criteria of well-matching journal, how to measure the reputation of the journal. The details of the process of paper submission will be delivered the course attendees too. And, the most shadowed issue called as “paper reviewing process” will be disclosed too.
The course will be based on the thirteen-year experience in publishing of Professor Alex Kostyuk, Editor-in-Chief of international referred journals Corporate Ownership and Control, Risk Governance and Control, Corporate Board, journal of Governance and Regulation. The course will be run with assistance of Yaroslav Mozghoviy, Dmitriy Govorun and Yulia Lapina, who are talented secretaries of the Editorial Boards of the above mentioned journals. Formal appreciation and evaluation of your participation in the course will be made through granting you a certificate signed by Professor Alex Kostyuk.
