Publication Process

The Global Journal of Engineering and Technology Research (GJETR) maintains a transparent, rigorous publication process to ensure all manuscripts meet international academic standards. The following step-by-step guide details the journey from initial submission to final publication.

Step 1: Manuscript Submission

  • Authors prepare their manuscripts strictly according to GJETR’s Author Guidelines and official template.

  • Manuscripts are submitted through the journal’s online submission system. Submissions must include all required elements (cover letter, figures/tables, author information, and supplementary files, if any).

  • Each submission receives a unique tracking ID for subsequent communications.

Step 2: Initial Editorial Screening

  • The editorial team conducts a preliminary review for:

    • Adherence to scope and author guidelines

    • Basic scientific quality and significance

    • Plagiarism check using specialized software

  • Manuscripts failing to meet criteria are returned to authors with feedback. Suitable submissions advance to peer review.

Step 3: Peer Review

  • Manuscripts passing the screening stage are assigned to expert independent reviewers based on subject expertise.

  • GJETR conducts a double-blind peer review, maintaining anonymity of both authors and reviewers.

  • Reviewers evaluate:

    • Scientific rigor and originality

    • Clarity and structure

    • Ethical compliance and data integrity

  • Authors may receive:

    • Minor/major revision requests

    • Acceptance

    • Rejection with feedback.

Step 4: Author Revisions

  • Authors revise manuscripts as per reviewer and editorial comments.

  • Revised manuscripts must be resubmitted within the specified time frame, with a detailed response to reviewers' points.

  • Additional review rounds may occur if needed.

Step 5: Editorial Decision

  • The editorial board reviews the revised manuscript and peer review feedback.

  • Final decision options: Accept, Reject, or Request Further Revision.

  • Accepted manuscripts proceed to the production phase.

Step 6: Copyediting and Proofreading

  • Manuscripts undergo professional language editing and formatting to ensure clarity, consistency, and adherence to journal style.

  • Authors receive page proofs to check for typographical or formatting errors.

  • Authors must approve the final version before publication.

Step 7: Publication and Dissemination

  • Finalized manuscripts are published online with open access, indexed for global discoverability.

  • Authors are notified of publication, and articles are actively promoted across digital platforms to maximize visibility and impact
