Call for Submissions: JCIHE

Call for Submissions - JCIHE

The Journal of Comparative and International Higher Education (JCIHE) is the official journal of the Comparative and International Education Society’s (CIES) Higher Education Special Interest Group (HESIG). JCIHE promotes scholarship opportunities, critical dialogue, and provides a link to engage professionals and academics to the international aspects of higher  education. JCIHE publishes three volumes a year:  Spring, Fall, and Winter.  The Winter Issue also contains a Graduate Student Work-in-Progress Section. Article submissions are accepted on a rolling basis and the Graduate Student submissions are due on October 15.

We are inviting all CIES members to contribute their research to advance discussions of current issues on comparative and international higher education. 

We also want to especially invite all presenters at the CIES conference who are conducting research on higher education to submit an article version of their presentations as well.

Contributions to JCIHE include:

1) research article of 3,500 - 5,000 words (using the Chicago B citation Style). All articles will undergo a blind-review peer-editing process.  Articles are accepted on an ongoing basis.

2) comparative report analysis of 750 - 1,500 words that examines the primary themes and focus of more than one book, current report, or other documentation that guides higher education institutional policies.

3) Graduate student research in-progress of 500 - 1,000 words, that shares new research that will help to set the tone for current and emerging issues in the field.  The description should include: 
a) what is being studied; 
b) how the research contributes to comparative and international higher education; and
c) what the main take-away of the research will be.
