As a forum for the international business school community, BizEd welcomes submissions that discuss the topics most important to our readership of business school deans and faculty.  We encourage submissions that explore the compelling and often controversial issues that most deeply affect the present—and future—of management education.

Guidelines for Feature Articles:
Submissions should be between 1,500 and 3,000 words in length. BizEd is a journalistic—not academic—publication. Therefore, we prefer articles written in an informational, descriptive, and/or personal tone, rather than academic papers. We look for in-depth feature articles that address their topics descriptively and provokingly, and that tap into the expertise, intellect, and experience of the authors.  Topics should be of crucial interest to our readers in areas such as curriculum development, learning outcomes, effective teaching, fund raising, technology, globalization, and emerging trends in the field.

Guidelines for “Your Turn” Essays: 
For “Your Turn,” BizEd’s op-ed department, we accept submissions of approximately 800 or 1,500 words (for a one-page or two-page format).  If a submission is chosen for publication, a picture of the author is also required. “Your Turn” essays should explore a personal viewpoint and argument regarding an issue important to management education.

Guidelines for “Spotlight”:
BizEd’s “Spotlight” department features one school’s business program in each issue. To be considered for “Spotlight,” we require information about the school’s offerings, unique programs, student/faculty activities, awards, etc., in the form of brochures, Web site information, or other written descriptions. We also request four to six professional, four-color images that depict the business school’s facility, school campus, classes, events, or region. Digital images must be in JPEG or TIFF format, saved at high resolution (300 dpi or higher) at a size of 3” x 4” or larger.  Spotlight schools are chosen based on the uniqueness of their programs and the quality of the photos.

Each submission is read by our editorial staff and advisory board, and chosen based on its originality, quality, clarity, persuasiveness, immediate relevance to our readers, and suitability to our editorial calendar. Editorial decisions will be made within six weeks of submission. All articles accepted for publication are edited to suit BizEd’s format. Please see the editorial calendar for deadlines.

BizEd editors also accept press releases and other information to be considered for publication in its “Headlines” and “Technology” departments. The use of such items is subject to space constraints and editorial discretion.
