Undergraduate research journals (URJs) introduce students to the peer review and publication processes, teaching them to write manuscripts that will be reviewed for scientific rigor. Although the merits of URJs have been debated, this article argues that URJs can achieve learning objectives for both student authors and editorial teams. We suggest several guiding principles to maximize URJs' potential, including robust social support and official institutionalization. This process involves developing a closer relationship between graduate mentors and undergraduate editors, rigorous peer review standards, long-standing relationships with faculty, and publicity committees that give the journal visibility from the moment a student steps foot on campus. We also propose measures to enhance URJs' accessibility, such as registration with university libraries or crawlable databases.
