Submission
Guidelines / Information:
HPAIR
2004 invites upperclassmen, graduate students and postgraduates
pursuing research relevant to one of the specific HPAIR 2004 topics
to submit a paper for publication in the HPAIR 2004 Conference
Proceedings. Submissions should be in a format resembling that
of a scholarly journal article in the field, be approximately 15-20
pages in length, and include extensive citations. Submissions may
reflect any of a wide variety of methodologies and/or perspectives,
and may employ approaches including but not limited to case studies,
formal models, data analyses, regional studies, or policy briefings.
However, papers should be research-based rather than opinion pieces
or descriptive commentaries. Each submission will be reviewed by
the HPAIR editing committee for originality, relevance and publishable
quality. Authors of selected submissions will be invited to present
their research during the graduate seminar portion of the conference
to fellow students in the field and a panel of faculty acting as
respondents.
Click here for
the six submission topic categories. Sub-topics listed under
each category are suggested but not limited to the ones listed
below. If you are unsure whether your paper is appropriate,
please feel free to query the Head of Workshops.
All
students submiting a paper should refer to the online Call
for Papers Submission webpage. Submissions begin January 1, 2004.
Deadline
for paper
submission is April 15, 2004. Papers will be returned with
comments and notification of acceptance by May 15, 2004.
