Submissions Invited for 2024 BRISMES Conference Student Paper Prize

We are delighted to announce that submissions are open for this annual prize. If you are a student member of BRISMES and registered to present a paper at the conference, please do consider submitting your paper for the BRISMES Conference Student Paper Prize. If you chaired or attended a panel which included student presenters, please consider encouraging them to make a submission! 

Established in 2021, this prize aims to support BRISMES student members in the development of peer-reviewed work. The prize winner will receive £300 and will be mentored through a review process at the British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies (BJMES) by a senior member of the BRISMES academic community. Such a mentor will be identified on the basis of the disciplinary field and topic of the awarded conference paper. In addition, the desk review process will be skipped and the journal will commit to sending the paper directly to external reviewers for the final decision about publication.

The deadline for submissions is 17:00 (UK time) on Tuesday, 1 October 2024.  If you have any questions about prize, please do not hesitate to get in touch by emailing Amy Brickhill at office@brismes.org.
