Spectra Undergraduate Research Journal by the Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR) is currently accepting manuscripts for its Spring 2024 issue to be published in early Fall 2024. The deadline for this upcoming issue is rolling. Interested students should email our@unlv.edu for more information.

Spectra is a bi-annual (i.e., fall and spring issues), peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary, open-access journal primarily dedicated to the publication of undergraduate student research at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. If and when possible, Spectra also publishes well-qualified undergraduate research from other institutions.

OUR offers workshops on how to write abstracts, annotate bibliographies, cite properly, prepare manuscripts for publication, and review manuscripts for publication, encompassing many stages of the writing spectrum.
