Opportunity for Undergraduates to Publish Projects in UWM Digital Commons

Student researchers are encouraged to publish their research presentations (Power Point, posters, videos, audio, etc.) to the UWM Digital Commons, a virtual showcase administered by the UWM Libraries for UWM’s research and creative profiles.

Including work in the UWM Digital Commons provides the undergraduate scholar with institutional recognition. The work is assured a stable, visible online location that is searchable and citable. Publication of research will help build a record of research work and will be available to a wide audience.

Some examples of student scholarship already uploaded to the Digital Commons are

Please note that students will need to have their faculty mentor approve publication of research materials to the site.

To upload work, please send it to open-access@uwm.edu. The UWM Libraries will contact mentor(s) for their approval. The deadline for submission is June 1, 2017. The deadline for mentor(s) approval is July 1, 2017.

For more information on publishing your research, see the UWM Libraries Advanced Research Concepts Tutorial (LARC).
