Partnership
Cardiff University supports researchers with partial or full coverage of article publishing charges (APCs) in high-impact journals, making your research instantly accessible to everyone, everywhere.
Are you eligible?
To be eligible under the partnership you need to ensure:
You are affiliated with the institution
You are the corresponding author
Cardiff University funds open access publishing in fully open access journals where either:
1. The article is eligible for funding from Cardiff University's Wellcome Trust, UKRI, and/or BHF funds; or
2. The article is a peer-reviewed original research or review article, funding is not available from a research funder, and the corresponding author is current Cardiff University staff (not honorary, visiting, or emeritus), or a current postgraduate research student at acceptance.
Authors must fill in an application to the relevant fund to confirm if funding is available.
Note: Final approval is determined by your institution. If you want to confirm your eligibility before submitting, please contact your library at openaccess@cardiff.ac.uk.
