Student Journals – Publishing Opportunities for students

I was asked by a student whether there are also journals in which undergraduate students can publish their results. Yes there are, lots of them!

Below you will find a list with many journals, organized by topic. Many of these are specifically geared towards undergraduate students, others are not but are also open to undergraduate students. I have included only journals that are published in English.

Currently the list is very focused on undergraduate student journals in the USA, I will add more from other regions as well. The library at your university library may be able to help you find additional journals. Please let me know in case any journal is missing from this list so I can add it.
