Club Mission

We will be accepting applications for Fall 2025 for both our Journal of Undergraduate Research (PSURJ) and High School Journal (PSHSJ).

Science Research Journals at Penn is a student group committed to promoting and raising the visibility of undergraduate and high school research. We were the first undergraduate student-led reserach journal in the country and continue to be the premier destination for top undergraduate and high school research, receiving hundreds of submissions per year.

We run two peer-reviewed journals: one showcasing high school research and another with undergraduate research. 

By creating a scientific forum for and by students, we hope to bring together young researchers, helping to make students feel that rather than participating in a disjointed and isolating endeavor, they are becoming a part of a true community of scholars. Throughout the year, we will host various research-related events internally and for the broader community.
