Submissions & Editorial Policies
As QUT journalism students and alumni, we are incredibly passionate about providing a platform for students and graduates to build up their portfolio, so they excel in their careers.
This publication does not have a particular theme for our contributors to write under. If you have a story idea that you believe is within public interest or has a sharp newsworthy angle, we want to hear about it.
We accept submissions year-round and are open to provide feedback on pitches prior to submission.
You may submit TV and radio packages, vox pops, written articles, and photojournalism.
