Thursday 19th January  12.30 - 1.45pm 

Room B04 Birkbeck Main Building

In 2011-12 BISR is running a new series of lunchtime workshops on 'Developing your research career'.  The workshops offer opportunities to develop and share knowledge about key aspects of a successful academic career: publishing journal articles, gaining grants, getting book contracts, networking and getting promoted. All the workshops are relevant to early career researchers, some will also be useful to research students and to more experienced staff.

This session will examine useful practices for increasing your chances of getting articles published in academic journals.  The panel is made up of Birkbeck academics who serve as editors for both traditional and open access journals.  The session will look at the question of where to publish and how to produce articles that are likely to be accepted.  Research students and staff at all stages of their careers are welcome.

Birkbeck Institute for Social Research



The Birkbeck Institute for Social Research (BISR) is a cross-Faculty interdisciplinary research centre that acts as a hub for a wide variety of social research taking place at Birkbeck and beyond. The term social research is being used here to encompass work in social theory, psychosocial studies and sociology in the critical tradition for which Birkbeck is known; it connects researchers in social psychology, social policy, human geography, law, gender studies, politics and sociology and makes links with colleagues in other areas of the humanities and social sciences.

The BISR takes an active role in promoting social research and in providing commentaries on social issues. It works to promote cross-disciplinary debate, discussion, thinking and research on social issues.
