Postgraduate English is specifically designed for Postgraduates Students in English Studies in the UK and the EU. The journal is biannual, appearing in March and September of each year. There are three major sections: "Articles" will publish refereed submissions from postgraduate students in the UK and the EU, adding a brief response from one of our referees; "PG-Tips" is a compendium of useful internet links; and "Forum" is a site for essays and pieces of academic journalism on matters related to postgraduate life. It also contains software for online conferences. "Articles" will be updated with new material every March and September, while the other two sites will be updated when the need or opportunity arises. A special feature of this first issue is a full detailed report, in "Forum", of the conference "Postgraduate Futures" held at the Anglia Polytechnic University in July 1999. Papers are still invited for vol. 2 of this new journal (September 2000). Postgraduates in English in the UK or in any EU country are welcome to submit papers of up to 7,000 words, which should conform to MLA guidelines in presentation and should be despatched no later than the 30th of June. A prize of 300 will be awarded to the best paper to appear in the journal during 2000. Further details on the journal's page "submissions".
