JOURNAL STAFF
The core staff of the UBC Journal of International Affairs is composed of a group of highly motivated students, who contribute to the production and success of a premier undergraduate journal. Generally these students come from a variety of different departments, including political science, economics, history, and international relations.
Collectively, the editors are responsible for soliciting submissions, evaluating papers and selecting the strongest for publication. At a later stage, editors will also work closely with authors to make improvements to their work. This process allows editors to gain invaluable experience in academic writing, editing, and publishing.
In addition UBC faculty from various departments volunteer their time every year to maintain the high academic standard of the publications.
