Welcome to JSAUR

The Journal of Secondary and Undergraduate Research is a project dedicated to helping students everwhere publish research for free.

A New Era for Academic Publishing

At JSAUR, we believe that the future of academia is a transparent, accessible, and community-driven environment. We aim to achieve this by incorporating modern elements that offer a space where student scholars can publish high-quality research without the restraints of high-cost and gatekeeping.

Peer-Review

All JSAUR publications undergo a peer-review process by fellow researchers. One of our central missions is to ensure fair feedback and ensure and foster academic quality.

Accessibility and Inclusivity

JSAUR eliminates financial barriers by offering a free-to-publish platform, making academic publishing free to all students regardless of their background.

Decentralization

JSAUR leverages Web 3.0 technologies such as blockchain and smart contracts to create a decentralized platform of transparency and accountability in the publishing process.
