• Description:
  In the Fall 2016 newsletter article, "How to Get Your Work Published: Non-Peer Reviewed Articles," we covered why non-peer reviewed articles are a good first step for engineers who are not in research-based jobs. Engineers in research-based positions may frequently publish in peer-reviewed journals. However, with guidance and the right topic, a USPHS engineer regardless of the position can publish in a peer-reviewed journal. A peer-reviewed article is one that has been examined by people with credentials in the article's field of study before it is published. The advantage of publishing your work in a peer-reviewed journal is earning notability in your field of work. Your manuscript will be read by people with similar jobs and if you publish quite a bit in a particular area, you may be deemed an expert. The disadvantage is the process is not as expedient as publishing in a non-peer reviewed journal. The submission and publishing processes can vary depending on the journal. Your article may have to undergo several revisions and reviews before a journal will agree to publish it. This process could take a couple of months. [Description provided by NIOSH]
