Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Positions available: up to 30 students, working individually

We would like students to write and publish interdisciplinary articles that align with our focus as a non-profit charity.

To accomplish this, we expect the student(s) will:

  • work individually to author articles for publication relating to health-equity, education, social-philosophy, and health research.
  • write 2200 to 4000 words each week - revise texts under the direction & mentorship of our program chair & LevelUp program director
  • participate in tutorials for publication submission; execute learned skills with self-started publication submissions (students will not be expected to pay for journal submissions; student-work will be sent to free-submission journals only).
  • maintain scheduling and productivity via a centralized gantt chart.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

Four articles approved by our program chair for publication

About the company

The Antarctic Institute of Canada is a non-profit Canadian charity organization founded by former Antarctic researcher Austin Mardon in 1985. Its original aim was to lobby for the federal government of Canada to increase the extent of Canadian research in the Antarctic. However, AIC slowly diversified and initiated programs for students to publish Antarctic research in newspapers and academic journals. These days, the AIC supports academic writing, research, and multimedia in many fields, expanding far beyond the organization’s original focus on Antarctica.
