The IJECS uses a double-blind peer review process to ensure the quality of the articles published in the journal. The peer review process is designed to provide a fair, impartial, and rigorous evaluation of the manuscript, and to ensure that the scientific record remains accurate and reliable.
The Peer Review Process:
- Upon receipt of a manuscript, the Editor-in-Chief will conduct a preliminary evaluation to determine if the manuscript is suitable for publication in IJECS.
- If the manuscript is deemed suitable, it will be sent to at least two independent experts in the field for review.
- The reviewers will evaluate the manuscript anonymously and provide detailed and constructive feedback on its strengths and weaknesses.
- Based on the reviewer feedback, the Editor-in-Chief will make a decision on the suitability of the manuscript for publication. This decision may be to accept the manuscript for publication, reject the manuscript, or request revisions with specific suggestions for improvement.
- If revisions are required, the authors will be given the opportunity to revise their manuscript and resubmit it for review.
- The final decision on publication will be made by the Editor-in-Chief, taking into account the reviewer feedback and any revisions made by the authors.
