Abstract
Graduate students learn early on that conducting research is necessary to secure an academic job. Ten refereed journalism and mass communication journals during a ten-year period were examined to identify graduate student journal productivity trends, authorship order, institutional affiliations of student authors, journals most likely to publish graduate student authors, and ranks of faculty coauthors. Students were most likely to publish as first authors in Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly and Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication. Institutions producing the greatest number of student authors were Indiana University, University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Michigan State University.
