The Tulane Maritime Law Journal (TMLJ) accepts submissions from law school graduates in the United States and abroad. The print Journal publishes three times per year with issues in winter, spring, and summer. The supplemental online-only issue is published annually in the summer and features notable student-written pieces. Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year.
TMLJ strives to provide readers with the kind of scholarship they cannot find elsewhere that will be practically useful in their daily practices. To that end, we publish many articles on commercial maritime law in any nation and on private international law, while submissions focusing solely on law of the sea or public international law will be carefully weighed in terms of their practical application to our readers.
Submissions via Scholastica, an online submission-based system, or email submissions are preferred. Emailed submissions can be sent to our Senior Articles Editor Evan Pham at epham1@tulane.edu.
Hard copies may be sent to our address, c/o the Senior Articles Editor at: Tulane Maritime Law Journal Tulane University Law School John Giffen Weinmann Hall 6329 Freret St. New Orleans, LA 70118-2631
