How to Publish Your Brazilian dissertation.

 


Making your dissertation available is an important step towards making academic work in to known scholarship. In Brazil, it is influenced by universities, financing bodies and national assessment systems. Although finishing a thesis is a feat to itself, publication of a thesis is what will ascertain the extent to which your research will be viewed, quoted and appreciated.


CAPES, an evaluation of postgraduate programs and ranking journals using the Qualis system, is at the heart of the academic structure in Brazil. Jointly with it, CNPq promotes research and invites scholars to be published in well-known journals. The dissertations are also meant to be deposited in institutional repositories which make them accessible and compliant with the requirement in universities.


Your dissertation can be published in a number of forms. The most widespread one is the transformation of chapters into journal articles that offer a good academic appreciation and promotion. Publishing an article or monograph is also a good way in other fields such as humanities and social sciences. SciELO and university repository platforms enhance visibility, whereas with conferences, it is possible to disseminate and receive feedback early.


Your dissertation should be polished before it is submitted. Journals need succinct and narrow writing, and therefore lengthy passages are to be shortened, unnecessary literature review eliminated and essential findings brought to fore. It is commonplace to find that many researchers separate their dissertation into several papers in order to get as much as they can produce.


The selection of the journal is very important. Although CAPES Qualis rankings (A1- B5) are useful, it is also worth paying attention to the area of the journal, its audience, and its presence in databases, such as Scopus or Web of Science. Publishes in international journals increase the global coverage whereas Brazilian journals are localized.


Brazilian culture on open-access publishing is also very high, especially through SciELO. Free readership is possible under open access, and is likely to result in increased citation, though some journals charge to publish. The accessibility of traditional publishing can be restricted and the initial expenses can be lowered.


The process of submission usually involves preparations of the manuscript, editorial screening, peer review, revision and final publication. It is not easy to be approved and thus to succeed in the process it is necessary to respond positively to the reviewer.


It is also important in the choice of language. Although most of the dissertations are composed in Portuguese, when published on English, the chances of international exposure and partnering are much higher. In order to be published in international journals, researchers usually translate their work or write in English.


The ethical standards should be applied strictly. These involve the prevention of plagiarism, proper citations, seeking copyrights authorization over the materials used in the research and seeking ethical approval of the research that has human subjects.


Supervisor and institutional support are also important. Advisors are used to refine manuscripts, suggest journals and advice on revisions, universities usually provide writing workshops, funding, and editing facilities.


Visibility is the second priority after publication. The establishment of a profile on Google Scholar, posting works on ResearchGate and Academia.edu, and speaking at conferences can increase the number of citations and academic status.


To sum up, you have to be both academically rigorous and strategic in publishing your dissertation in Brazil. With a refined work, selecting the appropriate mediums, and using institutional backing, you can make sure that your research is not limited to your university and is able to make a difference in the global academic discourse.
