Get Published in 2025!
TME’s 2025 Editorial Calendar is now available! Download the calendar to review upcoming topics, special reports, and deadlines for submissions to TME in 2025.
Each issue of TME also accepts submissions for both Spotlight Articles and Viewpoints.
- Viewpoints are feature articles within the following areas: Business Development, Research & Innovation, Training & Leadership, and Contracts & Acquisition. They should engage thought leaders and provide readers with unique insights, lessons learned, and understandings on topics of importance.
- Spotlight Articles are big-picture topics that may not be represented on the Editorial Calendar or may be better presented in a longer-form, feature presentation. Past examples include Expeditionary Engineering, Joint Basing, USACE District Acquisition, and Engineering Programs in Europe.
In addition, each issue of TME welcomes Reflections from industry thought leaders; IGE Insights on SAME’s multidisciplined industry-government collaborations; and From the Field covering technical and strategic perspectives from servicemembers.
How to Get Published
SAME invites professionals from military, government, industry, and academia to submit articles for possible publication in The Military Engineer magazine throughout the year. Becoming a TME author is a two-step process.
- Submit a 100- to 200-word article proposal summarizing the proposed topic and direction of the article. TME editors will review the proposal and provide feedback to help you shape the article so that it best serves TME readers.
- Upon approval of the proposal, you will be asked to write and submit a 1200- to 1400-word article based on TME writer guidelines, as well as supply high-resolution images.
Read our full Writer’s Guidelines and submit your proposals and articles through the online portal.
