About QuaesitUM
QuaesitUM is the University of Memphis' academic journal for undergraduate researchers to publish their work. "Quaesitum" is a Latin term related to "seeking" or "knowing". QuaesitUM therefore shines a spotlight on what our undergraduates have "sought" and what they have learned through their seeking.
Students from all academic disciplines are showcased in QuaesitUM. The submission deadline for QuaesitUM is the Friday after the first day of classes each spring semester. Faculty reviewers from the relevant field evaluate submissions for suitability and offer suggestions for refining manuscripts. The journal is published every summer.
Exceptional papers will be eligible to receive a $500 QuaesitUM Outstanding Paper Award.
