About Us

The Public Policy Journal at FSU was founded in 2025 with the mission to uplift student research and interest in political, social, and economic issues. Through our interdisciplinary approach, we allow students from any section of the university to participate, helping them expand their expertise and narrow their interests onto specific fields. Any student of any major is encouraged to participate and research.

Some of the different aspects of the journal include:

• Research Help: At the Public Policy Journal, our editors will work with you every step of the research process to ensure that any applicants are producing high quality research. From proposal to submission, we’re here to help you edit, format, research, and officially post your work on our site.

• Paper Shoutouts: Do you have a paper you feel proud of, or an article you've been working on? Editors and Executives at the Public Policy Journal take existing papers and edit them to fit our guidelines so that they can be uploaded in a peer-reviewed, academic manner.

• Professional Development: We aim to submit outstanding papers to other well-recognized journals throughout the US. Anybody who presents their research with us will have a chance to be selected for this opportunity. 

• Community: Meet and engage with other individuals who are also passionate about public policy subject areas and learn something new!
