Early career researchers or postgraduate students interested in publishing their conference presentations are invited to submit to a conference themed issue of Flinders University’s academic journal FULGOR (Flinders University Languages Group Online Review).

FULGOR, a freely accessible, fully refereed international e-journal, is publishing a special issue of academic papers under the conference theme “Intercultural Aspects of Translation, Interpreting and Communication” edited by AUSIT and Flinders University guest editors.

Anyone interested in the opportunity is asked to email their name, title of paper and abstract to tets.kimura@flinders.edu.au as soon as they have submitted their abstract to the AUSIT site – by no later than 6 August 2018.

Postgraduate students who have shown their interest in publication will automatically be considered for the Postgraduate Conference Award, and will be asked to submit a full paper (no longer than 5,000 words) in English by 15 October 2018 if selected for the 2018 AUSIT National Conference. Successful students will be presented with the $500 award at the conference dinner. Papers will be assessed on their degree of originality, coherence and sophistication of argument and analysis, and whether they merit publication in FULGOR.

The deadline for submission of finalised articles for everyone who would like to pursue this publication opportunity with FULGOR is 31 January 2019.

Submitted articles will go through a double-blind peer review process and the special edition is scheduled to be published in mid-2019.

The guidelines and sample references for FULGOR can be found here and here.

If you have any queries, please email tets.kimura@flinders.edu.au
