All doctoral students are expected to write texts related to their postgraduate studies, i.e. their artistic work, as well as the topic of the artistic thesis or the dissertation. Writing articles is included in studies and is agreed on with the supervisor. The articles may be published in journals of the relevant field in Finland or abroad.
N.B. If a dissertation (Resesarch Study Programme) consists of published articles (i.e. article-based dissertation), they must be published or approved for publication in refereed scientific publication series, prior to being brought together in the dissertation and presented for inspection. The publication conventions of these articles depend on the publisher, and the student is encouraged to carefully observe the instructions for writers given by each journal / publication series.
The status assigned to scientific/scholarly journals can be found on the Publication Forum website of the Federation of Finnish Learned Societies (TSV).
The Uniarts Helsinki Publishing Guide contains information on Open Access publishing, self-archiving, publication reporting.
Trio and the Finnish Journal of Music Education are both peer-reviewed journals.
