A central aim of Aquila (Online ISSN: 2572-6021) is to introduce undergraduate and graduate students to the
revision and publication process. Students will receive mentorship all along the way,
from preparing their work for submission, to incorporating reviewer comments, to final
edits before publication. We want you to take your critical thinking and written/creative
analysis from the classroom to the wider community of scholars.
To do that, we work with students to transform their research into a published article.
This work can start as original research conducted for a graduate program, capstone
projects, honors theses, and posters. It can also start as research papers, in-depth
literature reviews, case studies, or creative pieces in upper-level courses. No matter
where it begins, the end is the same: a publication!
Aquila has a rolling deadline and will accept submissions up to one year after graduation.
All submissions are formally reviewed by the Editorial Board and faculty experts.
We hope that students will develop their skills as writers and researchers through
the review process.
We are happy to help you through the process of publication! For more information
or for assistance on the process or how to submit, please email Dr. Eichbauer in the
Office of Scholarly Innovation & Student Research at meichbauer@fgcu.edu.
Aquila is a member of the Florida Online Journals, which includes other scholarly journals
hosted by the FLVC Library Services.
