Description
Texas Woman's University's Publication Fund, administered by the Office of Research & Sponsored Programs (ORSP), helps researchers pay expenses associated with publishing their work. The program prioritizes journals listed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) or published as hybrid-open access journals, researchers seeking external funding, and applicants who have not already received publication support in the current academic year.
Review considers the publication's connection to research funded by or conducted at TWU, its quality, and its potential to strengthen competitiveness for external funding. Journal articles are ranked above books, with attention to non-predatory outlets and high impact factors. ORSP allocates funding by semester to support publications throughout the year.
