À propos de cette revue

Focus and Scope

The Journal for Undergraduate Ethnography (JUE) is an online publication for undergraduate academic writing. The JUE seeks to publish original ethnographic research by undergraduate students working in a variety of disciplines. Our goal is to bring readers insights into subcultures, practices, and social institutions. We expect crossovers with anthropology, sociology, urban studies, and area studies, as well as programs in education, design, or management.

Peer Review Process

Each manuscript will be reviewed by one member of the Senior Editorial Board. Authors' identities are not blinded.

Publication Frequency

The Journal for Undergraduate Ethnography is normally published twice a year.

Open Access Policy

The JUE is an Open Access journal that provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge. We want to maximize exposure and distribution for our authors. There are no access costs to readers and no publication costs to authors. However, to protect authors' intellectual work we use a strict Creative Commons license that allows others to download works and share them as long as they credit the authors, but they can‘t change the works in any way or use them commercially. Authors retain the right to grant other permissions.

Journal History

The Journal for Undergraduate Ethnography (JUE) was founded in 2011 by Dr. Jason Patch at Roger Williams University. Jason worked with student peer reviewers and student designers to create what rapidly became an exemplary undergraduate journal. In 2015, Dr. Martha Radice at Dalhousie University became Editor-in-Chief, and created the Senior Editorial Board to review articles. The JUE switched to publication in Open Journal Systems in 2018. For several years, the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Dalhousie University provided funding for editorial assistance. Hosting is provided by Dalhousie University Libraries and technical support by librarian Geoff Brown.
