Echo Journal is the journal for students of the Humanities Honours Programme at Utrecht University. The aim of this journal, is to provide our students with a place to publish their undergraduate work, as well as to acquaint our students with academic peer-reviewed publishing.
The subjects in our journal mirror the diversity of students in the programme. Hence, the Echo Journal presents papers from a wide array of academic disciplines. The journal accepts papers that are worthy for the honours-community; our standard is as high as that of the average honours-student. For more information on the criteria, consult the submission guidelines.
Echo Journal aims to simulate the world of academic publishing. Hence, the journal is anonymously peer-reviewed. It has an editorial board, submission guidelines, and is open-access. Submissions are either made available in both print and online, or only online, depending on the nature of the article. To view the latest issue, navigate to latest issue.
