Journal Editorial Board

MISSION

The BSCES Journal Editorial board supports the publication of the online journal, Civil Engineering Practice. The board consists of BSCES members representing the Society’s different technical divisions. The journal is a practice-oriented publication but also seeks a strong representation from among local colleges and universities.

ACTIVITY

The Journal Editorial Board meets quarterly in order to pursue the creation and maintenance of Civil Engineering Practice. To achieve these goals, the committee is charged with the following tasks:

• actively soliciting and acquiring technical papers;
• coordinating peer reviews of the technical content of each paper;
• planning and implementing the expansion of content forms to include synopsis and speaker handouts from technical presentations;
• evaluating how the journal is delivered to membership and eventually to subscribers;
• determining the mechanics and policies for the cataloging and indexing of technical content archives and its access;
• determining how to solicit advertising for the new journal in a manner that does not conflict with the sponsorship and advertising done now by BSCES as a whole and the BSCES newsletter;
• attending quarterly meetings of the editorial board.
