Submission of a manuscript implies that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.

Reviewing Process

  • All manuscripts will be subjected to double-blind peer-review and are expected to meet the scientific criteria of novelty and academic excellence.

  • All papers are subjected to plagiarism checks to inspect the similarity with previous studies. Only 15% similarity is allowed including 5% AI (Artificial Intelligence).

  • The submitting author is responsible for ensuring that the article’s publication has been approved by all other co-authors and takes responsibility for the paper during submission and peer review.

  • Poorly written papers will be returned to the authors for re-writing or will be rejected if the author is unable or unwilling to make the recommended improvements

  • The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any compensation claims.

Evaluation Process

All papers will be subjected to double-blind peer-reviews. Relevancy, structure, research method, ethical conducts, language standard, innovativeness, references, hypothesis, result presentation, proficiency, format, amongst many other factors are considered for the evaluation process.
