It acts as both a valuable resume-builder and a way to differentiate yourself from applicants in your field.
It allows you to share your research internationally and be recognized in a prestigious journal.
It provides an opportunity to have your work peer-reviewed, opening you to the experience of the process and ensuring your research is as high-quality as possible.
