Pitt Policy Journal is looking for research papers up to 5,000 words, policy briefs up to 1,500 words, and short-form articles up to 1,000 words. These can be on any topic related to public policy and international affairs, from any discipline (including, e.g., public health and education). We also welcome submissions that have been written as coursework in the past, as long as they follow our structure and formatting requirements. 

Being accepted in the journal provides students with an outlet to share ideas and research with a wider audience, to learn more about the publication process in a competitive academic journal, and to improve their writing through a collaborative editorial process.
