UJPIR offers a platform for undergraduates to publish original research that has underpinned their studies. Edited by Simon Lightfoot, Pro-Dean for Student Education at the University of Leeds, the journal aims to demonstrate that undergraduate researchers can make novel and academically significant contributions to the field, and support their journeys as developing researchers.
Submissions of work achieving a first class mark, or equivalent, which address any aspect of politics and international relations are welcomed all year round. As academic quality is central to the UJPIR ethos, all articles are fully peer reviewed by independent experts and the Board of Editors select material based on the quality of research and writing, diversity and relevance of the topic.
WRUP is an open-access digital publisher of peer-reviewed academic journals and publishes across a wide range of academic disciplines.
