CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

The 2023 Binghamton Undergraduate Research Journal is now accepting submissions until January 16th, 2024.

Binghamton University Undergraduate Journal showcases the broad spectrum and outstanding quality of undergraduate research, scholarly investigation, and creative work in various formats: traditional papers, works of fiction, videos, images, and recordings. The journal is published annually and is blind reviewed by Binghamton University's faculty, staff, and advanced graduate students.

Current Issue: Volume 8, Number 1 (2022) Alpenglow: Binghamton University Undergraduate Journal

Issue Theme: Belonging

When I approached this year’s edition, I wanted to continue the tradition of looking for an overarching theme that encapsulated the pieces selected for publication. But when I looked over the pieces, my fear from last year resurfaced: how can I bring these together in a single word? But as I again looked through the submissions, it became evident to me that the pieces were about exploring what it means to belong or looking for ways that could reconcile a perceived lack of belonging. To me, it only made sense to pick the word “Belonging” as a result—even one of our titles used it! Such a focus on belonging speaks to the current college generation’s struggle with determining community and belonging after coming out of a multi-year pandemic that left many alone, isolated, and unsure of how to create community as a twenty-something. And I firmly believe that the struggle is real!
