We would like to invite undergraduate students studying Economics to submit to the UCL Journal of Economics this academic year.
The UCL Journal of Economics is a new, peer-reviewed, student-run publication and the official student journal of the UCL (University College London) Department of Economics. We publish a yearly issue compiled and edited by students and reviewed by postgraduates and other academic experts. We aim to provide a free and reputable platform for undergraduate economists worldwide to begin their academic journeys, regardless of their previous experience, and create a formal record of high quality undergraduate economic research that may otherwise go unpublished.
Issue 1 included 14 articles from UCL and top American universities, with a great variety of topics studied and methodologies employed. As a sample of the high quality of papers we seek to publish, please refer to this selection from issue 1:
