Conferences, Fellowships, and Publishing Opportunities

The library at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln has a great guide to undergraduate philosophy journals here: https://unl.libguides.com/c.php?g=51642&p=333917

Check this resource out for ongoing research on publishing your undergraduate work.

Dialogue accepts articles by undergraduate or graduate students of philosophy, but not from those with terminal degrees (a terminal M.A. or a doctorate). Topics may be in any area of contemporary interest in philosophy or its history. Membership in Phi Sigma Tau is not a condition for publication. Authors are encouraged to use gender-inclusive language. For matters of style, please consult the latest version of The Chicago Manual of Style.

Prospective authors should email a copy of their paper to the editor. Any word processing format is acceptable though RTF (rich text format) or WORD files are preferred. The texts for papers should be double-spaced throughout (including quotations and notes), and with notes gathered at the end. Special symbols and characters in non-Roman alphabets should be avoided. Greek terms should be transliterated. Authors should also send a SUBMISSION SHEET containing:

Author’s name, mailing address, and phone number
(with email address if available).
TITLE of the paper submitted.
A brief ABSTRACT of fifteen lines or less.
A brief AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL STATEMENT.

Hard copies are acceptable, but they must be accompanied by a disk copy of the paper. If a disk copy of the paper is sent, the disk label should contain: (1) Author Name; (2) Disk format (e.g., DOS, MAC, UNIX); and (3) Formatting software and version. The author’s name should not appear on the manuscript copies, which cannot be returned. Authors should enclose a self-addressed postcard if they want immediate acknowledgment of receipt of their manuscripts.

Offprints are not available, but authors of articles will receive ten copies of the complete issue containing their article (reviewers, five copies). Abstracts of articles will be supplied for indexing to The Philosopher’s Index.
