Brief Encounters Postgraduate Journal

Brief Encounters is currently recruiting its next Editorial Board to oversee the creation of issue eight.

An open-access, peer-reviewed journal, Brief Encounters is entirely student-run and supported by the CHASE DTP to publish research from doctoral researchers and staff based at its constituent institutions and partner organisations. We are looking to recruit a team of enthusiastic research students committed to seeing issue eight through the editorial and review processes which will run for approximately twelve months from July 2023 to the publication of the issue in Summer 2024.

Whether you’re just interested to learn something new, or serious about a career in publishing or academia, working on Brief Encounters can provide valuable experience, training, skills and opportunities to meet new people. In turn, it allows researchers from across CHASE to have a unique opportunity to have their work reviewed and potentially published.

The following positions are open for applications from research students at CHASE institutions: Senior Editor, Submissions Editor, Section Editors (Articles, Reviews, Creative Encounters), Communications Officer, Web and Layout Officer. Read more about the roles here

How to apply: Please send a short statement of interest that includes: the role(s) you are interested in; a statement on your interest in the role(s) and the journal; details of any relevant previous experience to training@chase.ac.uk

Deadline to apply - Monday 14 August
