The Carleton Undergraduate Journal of Science (CUJS) is an open-access student-led journal that welcomes exceptional work by undergraduate students at Carleton University.

It publishes work on topics in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), with an emphasis on the importance of interdisciplinary research in STEM fields.
This grant will fund the production of a diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) guide to be made available on CUJS’s website and learning management platform and shared with authors, editors, peer reviewers, and Carleton’s science community.
