Pittsburgh Undergraduate Review

The Pittsburgh Undergraduate Review is a multi-disciplinary, undergraduate, academic journal published by the University of Pittsburgh Honors College. It is published annually, with recent issues available online. The journal publishes original, scholarly, research articles authored by undergraduate students. Submission of articles is open to students at any institution throughout the world, although the journal is an English-only publication. The majority of submissions involve topics in the humanities, arts, and social sciences.
The journal's thorough refereeing process is modeled on that utilized by professional academic journals. Submitted articles are reviewed for originality, clarity, reasoning, and research by at least two experts in a relevant field, pooled from faculty at the University of Pittsburgh and other institutions.
The National Collegiate Honors Council supported the journal's founding, which at the time was the first peer-reviewed undergraduate academic journal in the country. The Council also helped to established the Edythe Portz Prize, which rewards each year's best overall submission. The journal was recognized by the New York Times in 2001.
