Do you have an original piece of language research that you would like to publish? The Working Papers in the Language Sciences at the University of Rochester is currently accepting submissions for Volume 11 to be published in Spring 2026. Undergraduates, graduates, and faculty from the University of Rochester can submit term papers, qualifying papers, conference presentations, or otherwise unpublished research in the language sciences for publication in our very own departmental working papers journal.

Publishing in working papers is a chance for researchers to share work that is in progress, or that is not yet ready for submission to a full-fledged journal. Just like with a regular journal, papers submitted to WPLS:UR are reviewed, and if accepted, go through the revision and editing process (multiple rounds if need be). For students, this is a good opportunity to get early career experience with the publication of your research.

The deadline for submissions is November 25, 2026. For submission details and any other questions, please contact the journal’s editorial team at wplsur@rochester.edu.
