The journal serves as a leading voice for the emergency care community, reflecting its inter-professional diversity, and the importance of collaboration and shared decision-making to achieve quality patient outcomes. It is strongly focussed on advancing the patient experience and quality of care across the emergency care continuum, spanning the pre-hospital, hospital and post-hospital settings within Australasia and beyond.

The Australasian Journal of Engineering Education (AJEE) is published under the auspices of the Australasian Association for Engineering Education (AaeE), a technical society of Engineers Australia. The journal is offered as a means of exchanging current work and ideas, predominately from Australian engineering education faculties and as a resource for Continuing Professional Development for our community. The journal is open to members and non-members of Engineers Australia.

It is the policy of the AJEE to publish a variety of contributions on the scholarship and practice of engineering education. Major fields of interest include

• teaching and learning styles, methods, practices and philosophies in engineering
• assessment
• ethics
• inclusivity
• sustainability
• student issues
• online and laboratory learning
• professional practice.

We are also endeavouring to produce special themed sets of papers each year. The editors and editorial panel would be pleased to accept suggestions for these themes.

Publication categories:

AJEE aims to publish reviewed technical papers on all aspects of engineering education. Papers that are submitted follow an autonomous peer review process, with two independent reviewers as required by the DEST review guidelines. The following paper categories are accepted for review:

• Research paper – a paper making an original contribution to engineering education knowledge.
• Special interest paper/project report – report on significant aspects of a major or notable project.
• Review paper for specialists – an overview of a relevant area intended for specialists in the field covered.
• Review paper for non-specialists – an overview of a relevant area suitable for a reader with a relevant engineering education background.

The following submission categories are accepted on the editor's discretion:

• Tutorial paper – a paper which explains an important subject or clarifies the approach to an area of design or investigation.
• Technical note – a technical note or a letter to the editor, which is not sufficiently developed or extensive in scope to constitute a full paper.
• The expected length of acceptable contributions will vary considerably, but 5000 to 6000 words or equivalent for papers would be the norm. Technical notes should not exceed 1500 words.

The Australasian Journal of Environmental Management is published four times a year (March, June, September and December) and addresses general issues of policy and practice in resource and environmental management. The focus is on Australian and New Zealand practice, but articles covering relevant international perspectives are welcome. One of the four regular issues may be devoted to a specific theme, for example a particular management problem or resource sector investigation. Emphasis will be on topicality. The journal aims to enhance communication and understanding across many areas of resource and environmental management, and so contribute to improving environmental practice.
