Seven professors from different universities of Bangladesh including Dhaka University, Khulna University, Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Sylhet and University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB) also participated in the event.
The aim of the daylong workshop was to discuss and exchange views on publishing academic papers in journal and books. Beside analyzing and discussing different parts of an academic paper the workshop also shed light on selection of journals for publishing, submitting a paper for publication and process of addressing reviewer’s comments.
