What Graduate Students Want to Know

Abstract

There have been several recent occasions where I was asked, often together with other editors of sister design journals, to elaborate on JMD and its processes as an archival journal. Topics vary but usually include questions on what is the journal’s scope, how you get your paper accepted, and how you write good reviews. In the Q&A following these sessions, the majority of questions come from graduate students in the audience who are thinking about their own work and are trying to “learn the ropes.”
