How does membership work?
The JCJD depends on subscriptions from those universities that forward their students' work to us. Student authors make no payment; readers also do not make payment to access published JCJD works (this model is known as diamond open access). An Executive Committee member, Dean, Head of Department or Principal Lecturer usually arranges payment.
Regardless of the membership status of a student/author's university, the JCJD scrutinises every dissertation against the same criteria and applies the same inspection process.
If you work at a university and would like your students' work to appear on the platform, please do get in touch using the email: info@journalcjd.org.
