Prize Competition

UPDATE: The 2018 Case Studies in the Environment prize competition submissions window has closed. Thank you to everyone who has submitted papers for consideration! We expect to announce the winning case study articles in spring 2019.

The editors of University of California Press’s Case Studies in the Environment (cse.ucpress.edu) are pleased to announce the Second Case Studies in the Environment Prize Competition, offering a $2,000 prize for best environmental case study, as well as two $500 honorable mention prizes.

Deadline for submissions: September 15, 2018

Evaluation

Accepted, published articles will be further evaluated for their contribution to teaching environmental concepts to students or practitioners. This includes making the best use of the complement of learning support features that the journal provides, such as Case Study Questions, Teaching Notes, and Slides.

 

To be eligible for consideration for the prize, submitted pieces to the journal will have to clear our peer review process and be accepted for publication. After acceptance, the editors of each section will propose a selection of semi-finalist articles to the Editor-in-Chief and a subset of the Editorial Board, who will select the winning articles. Learn more about our editorial team.

 

All cases submitted after July 1, 2017 and by the deadline on September 15, 2018, and later accepted for publication (including those submitted prior to this announcement) will be eligible, except any cases written by members of the editorial team, editorial board, or their family members.

How to enter

To enter, follow our guidance for Article Cases as outlined in our Author Information. Manuscript templates are provided within the Author Information for your convenience. Be sure to submit your Article Case no later than September 15, 2018. Winners will be notified in spring 2018, or sooner if all eligible entries have reached final decision. All entries should be submitted via our online submission system. Questions can be directed to Liba Hladik, Managing Editor, at lhladik@ucpress.edu.

About Case Studies in the Environment

Quality cases, comprehensive coverage of environmental issues

 

Case Studies in the Environment is a journal of peer-reviewed case study articles, case study pedagogy articles, and a repository for editor-reviewed case study slides. The journal informs faculty, students, researchers, educators, professionals, and policymakers on case studies and best practices in the environmental sciences and studies.

 

Research grants may require that you “broaden the impact” of your work through innovation in teaching and training (e.g., develop curricular materials and pedagogical methods); contribute to the science of learning; and broaden engagement with your research to people outside your immediate field. Publishing in Case Studies in the Environment is a meaningful way of broadening the impact of your work.
