Aims & Scope

The Edinburgh Student Journal of Science (ESJS) highlights the research carried out by undergraduate and Master's students studying the physical and natural sciences. Created in 2024, the journal is a way for students to gain experience in writing, preparing, and publishing their work, whether they result from academic projects, summer internships/projects, or independent research. Articles written collaboratively by groups of students are also welcome. We accept articles which present novel, scientific research carried out by Honours undergraduate and Master’s STEM students which focuses on the physical and natural sciences. If you answer ‘yes’ to all three statements below, your work is a great fit for this journal. Does your research focus on the physical, biological, mathematical or other scientific laws governing the natural and technical world? Does your methodology rely primarily on quantitative data, laboratory experiments, quantitative/physical modelling, or technical analyses of natural or artificial systems ? Is the primary conclusion of your work a scientific finding rather than a social or policy recommendation ?
