Studies in Vocation and Calling is a peer reviewed, open access journal that advances scholarly study and professional practice related to the role of vocation and calling in higher education. The journal publishes peer-reviewed scholarly articles, editorially-reviewed reflections, and reviews of books and other resources. We invite submissions of articles that engage the theory and/or practice of vocational exploration and discernment in higher education, whether from within a specific academic field or through interdisciplinary approaches. Articles that foreground co-curricular perspectives from other areas of campus life are also encouraged; these may focus on areas such as career services, community engagement, experiential learning, athletics, student success, or religious and spiritual life.

In addition to scholarly articles (which are double-blind peer reviewed), we invite the submission of less formal reflective pieces that engage themes of calling and vocation. Reflections will be reviewed by the editors for possible inclusion and can be in the form of an essay, fiction, poetry, or other genres as appropriate for their content. Suggestions for reviews of books, films, podcasts, and other resources should be sent directly to the Book and Resource Review Editor.
