The Journal of Employability and the Humanities is for everyone in the Humanities. As a bi-annual, refereed journal produced in collaboration with the Centre for Employability Through the Humanities (ceth), at the University of Central Lancashire, its intention is to create space for a dialogue between Humanities and
employability. We want to hear your experiences of teaching, developing and researching employability and stress that prior knowledge of employability literature and models is not necessary. We do, however, also encourage contributions from the experienced practitioner or theorist. We also welcome contributions from students (undergraduate, postgraduate and mature) about their work and classroom experiences, especially for the student editorial, short discussion pieces or case studies.
We welcome submissions in any area including (but not restricted to) the following:
Integrating Employability with Subject
· Subject-specifi c Case Studies
· Entrepreneurship and the Humanities
· Comparisons between Humanities’ subjects
· Social Awareness and Employability
· Data-driven Research into Graduate Employability
· Strategies of Teaching, Learning and Assessment including Curriculum Design and Progression
· Careers Development
