Call for Early Career Reviewers!
Bridge Engineering is pleased to announce the creation of an Early Career Reviewer Board.
About the journal
BREN is a leading peer-reviewed publication covering innovation and developments in bridge engineering from around the world. Topics covered include the design, assessment, construction, maintenance, management, structural health monitoring and upgrading of all types of bridges to ensure they are sustainable and resilient to hazards. Research articles, state-of-the-art papers, descriptions of innovative construction methods and systems, project case studies, historic papers, commentaries, and perspectives are all welcomed.
The role of the Early Career Reviewer
As strong believers in positive change and impact, BREN has decided to develop an Early Career Reviewer Board (ECRB) to give Early Career Researchers the means to participate within a journal publishing environment and to be involved in developing BREN for the community along with the Editors, Associate Editors, and Editorial Board Members.
Selected applicants will be appointed to the ECRB for 3 years, after which there may be the opportunity to be appointed to the Editorial Board in consultation with the Editor-in-Chief. Each successful member will be expected to review 3 to 4 new papers per year. There will be an introductory meeting to discuss the publication process and any questions. Training will be provided for the journal’s submission system, ReView, by the Peer Review Editor.
