American Journal of Rising Scholar Activities

ISSN 2692-4161

American Journal of Rising Scholar Activities (AJRSA) is an open source, annual, Purdue University, peer and editor reviewed, undergraduate Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) research and activities journal. The journal was established in 2020. The contents of AJRSA are archived by the Library of Congress, and each individual manuscript receives a DOI number. AJRSA’s Library of Congress web ISSN is 2692-4161. AJRSA makes a unique contribution by providing journal access to a historically underserved component of the undergraduate population, Rising Scholars. Rising Scholars are low socioeconomic status (SES) STEM undergraduate students that are typically first generation attendees within higher education. In general, low SES students content with a variety of issues not experienced by the general undergraduate population: continuing family obligations, lack of a peer or professional support network, poverty, and inexperience with the higher education environment. Low SES STEM students additionally may face social integration problems, poor college preparation, and an initial lack of confidence in their abilities or chances to succeed. AJRSA provides a means for these students to share their experiences and assist future Rising Scholars along their own journey to professional success.

The Editorial Board of AJRSA consists of academic professionals dedicated to helping Rising Scholars to grow and achieve their true potential. AJRSA is partially supported by the National Science Foundation through grant #1644143, ‘Rising Scholars: Web of Support used as an Indicator of Success in Engineering’. AJRSA also receives support from the Purdue University Agricultural & Biological Engineering Department, the Purdue University Minority Engineering Program, and the Purdue University Agricultural Sciences Education and Communication Department. If you would like to financially support our efforts or need more information about AJRSA, please Contact Us at ajrsa@ecn.purdue.edu.

The submission process for AJRSA, our expectations, and the publishing workflow are described in the Submissions link. Please use the following links to view the Current Issue or Archived Issues of AJRSA.

ISSN 2264-2668

The Artl@s Bulletin is a blind peer-reviewed, transdisciplinary journal devoted to spatial and transnational questions in the history of the arts, published by Artl@s in partnership with Purdue Scholarly Publishing Services.

The Artl@s Bulletin ’s ambition is twofold: 1. a focus on the “transnational” as constituted by exchange between the local and the global or between the national and the international; 2. an openness to innovation in research methods, particularly the quantitative possibilities offered by digital mapping and data visualization.

BIRS Technical Reports (Biotechnology Innovation and Regulatory Science Center Global Community)

ISSN 2836-5666

The mission of the Biotechnology Innovation and Regulatory Science Center is to educate and train students to become global leaders and innovators to advance discovery and development, especially in areas related to biotechnology, and to meet global health needs with an initial focus on Africa. We accomplish this mission through innovative knowledge-based programs in STEM areas, an emphasis on interdisciplinary collaboration, and an emphasis on engaging industry.

The research objectives of the BIRS Center lie both within biotechnology education and discovery research, with the overall goal of providing excellence in graduate and undergraduate education and training for careers in the life sciences, most recently emphasizing an additional area of regulatory science utilizing machine-learning to analyze drug quality. Regulatory science is multidisciplinary and the field of regulatory science also faces challenges to bring emerging research and technologies to the workforce. The BIRS Center has allowed for successful and sustainable multidisciplinary collaborations to bring cutting edge research content into the classroom.

Open access publishing is critical to meet the goals of the center’s mission. Not only does open access give a voice to those who may not otherwise have a platform, but by allowing the research our BIRS community performs to be readily available for fellow researchers, the knowledge will flourish. The growing BIRS community, both in the United States and abroad, can be provided the opportunity to watch their research be put into action.

Currently we are publishing the following categories of work:

1. Technical Reports
2. Literature Reviews
3. Translational Discovery
4. Research into Practice

Our publications would not be possible without the funding of multiple sources. Our community and supporters come from the areas of academic, regulatory (government), and industry.

Proposals on any aspect of library and information technology were welcomed, including such topics as:

• Handheld Technologies: PDAs, Smartphones, Tablet PCs
• E-learning: Effective e-learning and distance learning for the mobile-optimized Web
• Mobile Devices and Accessibility
• Library-specific open source software (OSS) and other OSS "in" Libraries, technology on a budget

Presentations must have a technological focus and pertain to libraries and/or be of interest to librarians. Concurrent sessions are approximately 75 minutes in length and sessions of all varieties are welcomed from traditional single- or multi-speaker formats to panel discussions, case studies, and demonstrations of projects. Forum 2009 will also accept a limited number of poster session proposals. For projects that will still be in preliminary development in October 2009, we recommend presentations at a lightning talk or other "un-conference"-like activities for which time will be reserved at Forum.
