Hi all, im wondering for those who are taking either mphil/phd, do you guys publish a journal paper based on ur research before finishing your thesis or after finishing your whole thesis? And why would you do so?

Would be good to submit and if possible, get it under accepted or published status before submitting your thesis. This may help you in terms of significance of work.

hmm, alright. I was thinking the same too. Do you know how long the process of submission to a journal till the review/acceptance/rejection normally takes?

Depends on the editor office actually. You can refer to the 1st page of your referenced paper.

Here's a timeline sample of my paper in Elsevier:

Received 12 February 2013
Received in revised form 28 April 2013
Accepted 2 May 2013
Available online 11 May 2013

mycolumn,

If your thesis and research is good, wouldn't your adviser submit it for publication in some prestigious journal??  So, why do you have do it??

For example, I did not realize that my master thesis had been published in a journal until after many years that I had graduated.

owh, my supervisor did ask me to do so before. However, during that time, I am still busy writing and finalizing my research, so I do not want to think about publishing just yet. Only now that I have extra free time that I am considering of publishing one paper out of my thesis.
