Science has the highest paid circulation among magazines for scientific researchers. Science is published every Friday. The deadline to guarantee your ad will run in a particular issue is 17 days prior to the issue date. Space is usually available after the deadline on a first come, first serve basis. Please check with your sales rep for space availability even if you are past the deadline. Classified ads include employment, fellowships, graduate programs, meetings and announcements.
Print Ad Options:
Display Ads:
Display ads are sold in standard unit sizes ranging from a 1/6 page up to a full page.
Display ads enable your organization to stand out on the page and have the flexibility of adding a border, color, graphics, photos, logos, or special typesetting of text.
The amount of text or how much prominence you prefer will determine the size of the ad.
Science will typeset your ad at no additional cost, or you can send us camera ready or digital art.
Ad prices are determined by the size of your ad.
You may also choose to post your display ad online for eight weeks at www.sciencecareers.org for an additional cost.
Line Ads:
Your ad will be run in a column of text. All ads are typeset in the same type size and type style.
There is a 10-line minimum. A line is estimated at 49 characters including punctuation and spaces.
The length of your ad is determined by the amount of text you submit.
You may opt to include your logo or have a bold border around your ad both of which will add lines and result in an additional charge.
Line ads are priced by the number of lines. Discounts are available to multi-run and renewed ads. You may also choose to post your print ad online for eight weeks at www.sciencecareers.org for an additional cost.
How to submit your ad or get more information:
Step 1. Submit ad for placement or price quote only.
E-mail your ad to advertise@sciencecareers.org or fax your Science sales representative with the text or digital file of the ad you would like to advertise. You may specify the style of ad you would like a quote for or ask for both display and line options.
Step 2. Authorize placement for print issue(s) and online posting.
If you do not already know the size of your ad, your sales rep will determine the size and reply to you during business hours the same day. We will give you a price quote and the next available issue date. You can then determine if you want to make any changes to the ad and decide on the issue(s) for placement. You will also determine whether you want the ad posted online in addition to print. If an additional quote is needed we will re-price the ad and send you a new cost estimate based on any changes you have made. Your ad will be scheduled to run once we've received your authorization and the necessary billing/payment information from you.
Step 3. Confirm billing status and provide necessary payment information.
Depending on your Science billing/payment status, you will either be invoiced or asked to prepay. Your sales representative will inform you of your billing status and let you know what information is required from your organization (i.e., purchase order, signed order confirmation, etc.) Invoices are mailed 2-3 weeks following the issue date.
