A new journal coming out of the University of Melbourne’s School of Culture and Communication has set its sights on disseminating new academic work from around the globe. The journal of media and communication, Platform, is exactly that; a platform for bouncing out new ideas. Not only because it is a journal specifically designed to support and publish Honours, Masters and Doctorate students (getting work published in academic journals is very competitive and hard to get when you’re competing with seasoned academics) but also because the journal is open access.
