The Yale Scientific Magazine (YSM) is a scientific magazine published quarterly by undergraduate students from Yale University.[1] It was founded at the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale in 1894.[1] It was the first student magazine devoted to the sciences, and is currently the oldest collegiate science quarterly in the United States.[1] Before 1927, it was originally called Yale Scientific Monthly or Yale Sheffield Monthly.[1]

Over 100 students are involved in various aspects of the magazine, including writing, editorial, production, art, multimedia, website, and business. It now has about 2,000 subscribers around the world. Article topics covered by Yale Scientific Magazine includes disciplines in science, mathematics, and engineering at Yale and beyond. As the student science publication on campus, the magazine presents and promotes achievements, knowledge, and activities in the sciences, medicine, and engineering at the University.

Synapse

Synapse is the outreach team of YSM. Synapse regularly hosts competitions, conferences and events that are usually targeted at, but not limited to, children and teenagers, to cultivate and support interests in science and journalism.[2]

The Scope

In 2015, YSM launched its blog page, The Scope, which aims to present topics and breakthroughs in science in a simpler, more interesting, and more personal manner.[3]
