UMBC Review

The UMBC Review is a peer-reviewed publication, completely directed by UMBC undergraduate students. All of the articles published in the UMBC Review go through a rigorous peer review process. The Review is indebted to the anonymous off-campus faculty reviewers who volunteer their time to assure the high quality of our publication. We are proud to produce the publication in print format.

Submissions for the 25th edition will take place this summer. We invite researchers of all disciplines to submit their work to our journal then. The Review offers a rewarding opportunity to get your undergraduate research published in a peer-reviewed academic journal.

As Featured on the “Retrieving the Social Sciences” Podcast

Deadlines For Submissions

  • The Priority deadline: August 18, 2023
  • The General deadline: September 15, 2023
  • Deadline Extension: September 22, 2023

Students who submit by the priority deadline receive initial comments on their papers before the final deadline. Students who have graduated, but conducted research as undergraduates within the last year, are eligible to submit their work.

Publish your research from a summer REU, capstone, honors thesis, or other independent work. All majors welcome! Boost your resume or grad school application by becoming a PUBLISHED AUTHOR!

Free copies of the current issue are available for pick up at the Office of Undergraduate Research (AOK Library, 216 D).
