The Canyon Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies (CJIS) is an annual online publication coordinated by the Center for Innovation in Research and Teaching at Grand Canyon University (GCU) that highlights exemplary student and faculty research completed at GCU.

The goals of CJIS are:

1. To encourage exchange of empirical and theoretical research among faculty and students at GCU, especially graduate students.
2. To provide graduate students professional experience in the dissemination and publication of their work.
3. To increase awareness of the range and diversity of research being conducted by faculty and students at GCU.

Aligned with these goals, topics covered in CJIS represent a range of methodologies, disciplines and theoretical topics.
