The UCLA
Undergraduate  Science  Journal

Supported by generous funding from the UCLA Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI)

What is USJ?

Registered with the Library of Congress

Advised by the UCLA Undergraduate Research Center

Great opportunity for undergraduates to get published

Peer-reviewed Publication

The UCLA Undergraduate Science Journal is a peer-reviewed publication registered with the Library of Congress, featuring top-quality research performed by UCLA undergraduates in all STEM fields, including life sciences, engineering, statistics, physics, mathematics, and computer science. We aim to provide a multidisciplinary platform that allows students to publish their research and engage with the larger research community at UCLA and also involves students with the peer review process. Submitted manuscripts undergo a rigorous peer review and publication process run completely by undergraduates. 

Staffed by Undergraduates

The USJ is reviewed, edited, and designed by a group of around 70 talented UCLA undergraduate students. We recruit every year in the fall.

Submit an Article

Our submission period for articles is now open! Articles in the USJ are exclusively written by undergraduates, providing a unique glimpse to the future of research.
