Call for Articles
The Design Principles & Practices Journal Collection welcomes article submissions related to the following Research Network themes:
To begin the process, submit your complete article. You will also need the following: short and long descriptions, keywords, focus, themes, and biographical information.
If your article is an extension of a presentation from the International Conference Design Principles and Practices and your presentation proposal has been reviewed and accepted, you can move directly to the next step.
At this point, your complete article will receive an initial editorial check.
Next, your article will move into the peer-review phase. This process is anonymous—we do not provide identifying information about the author or reviewers. (Please be sure to remove identifying information from submissions, such as author self-citations.) Each article is assigned to two reviewers with editorial experience and/or relevant expertise. After your article is reviewed, you will receive the reviewers’ feedback and publication recommendations.
Once your article has passed peer review and is ready for publication, we will help you through the final steps to bring it to completion. Once complete, your article will be published in Design Principles & Practices Journal Collection. At this point, you may also elect to make your article available Hybrid Open Access.
Please note that while you do not need to be a member of the Design Principles & Practices Research Network to submit your complete article, you must become a member and accept the standard Publishing Agreement for your article to be published. Find out more about membership to the Design Principles & Practices Research Network.
You can submit your article at any time throughout the year. The rolling submission deadlines, corresponding with the publication of journal issues, are as follows:
| Submission Round 1 | 15 January | |
| Submission Round 2 | 15 April | |
| Submission Round 3 | 15 July | |
| Submission Round 4 | 15 October |
