Cambridge, MA & Chandler, AZ — December 2025 — STEAM National Honor Society (STEAM NHS), a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to advancing student scholarship in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics, announced a strategic collaboration with Intelligent Science Group Inc. (Science Bank). Together, they will publish the 2026 edition of the Future Scholars Journal (FSJ)—a free, peer-reviewed, international student research journal.
This partnership unites STEAM NHS’s mission-driven research ecosystem with Science Bank’s global publishing infrastructure. Consequently, it will strengthen peer review, editorial quality, and international visibility for student-authored research. The Future Scholars Journal, an official scholarly activity of STEAM NHS, provides a rigorous publication pathway for high school and undergraduate researchers worldwide.
Under this collaboration, STEAM NHS and Science Bank will jointly manage peer review and publication for about 30 high-quality student research articles. Additionally, they will draw on a combined network of academic reviewers. The journal will follow a structured, transparent review cycle aligned with international scholarly standards. Ultimately, publication will occur in Spring 2026.
Importantly, Science Bank will support DOI registration for accepted manuscripts. Therefore, student work will remain permanently citable and discoverable within the global research community. The Future Scholars Journal will appear on the FSJ portal and mirror on the Science Bank platform. This approach expands reach while preserving STEAM NHS’s full ownership of the journal’s intellectual property.
“This collaboration reflects our commitment to treating student research with the same seriousness, ethics, and rigor as professional scholarship,” said a STEAM NHS representative. “By partnering with Science Bank, we expand access, credibility, and opportunity for young researchers worldwide.”
Similarly, a Science Bank representative stated, “Science Bank is proud to support the Future Scholars Journal and its mission to elevate early-stage researchers. This partnership demonstrates how platforms and nonprofits can work together to strengthen the future of scholarly communication.”
The Future Scholars Journal remains completely free for authors and readers. Thus, it reinforces STEAM NHS’s commitment to open access, equity, and global participation in research. Students selected for publication benefit from structured peer review, editorial mentorship, and international dissemination of their work.
The 2026 edition of the Future Scholars Journal is scheduled for publication between April and May 2026.
