Peer Review Process

International Multidisciplinary Journal of Research for Innovation, Sustainability, and Excellence (IMJRISE)

The International Multidisciplinary Journal of Research for Innovation, Sustainability, and Excellence (IMJRISE) is a peer-reviewed publication with a transparent and rigorous editorial process. IMJRISE follows a clearly defined review policy, providing full disclosure of its criteria and review stages to maintain academic integrity.

Peer Review Policy: IMJRISE employs a double-blind peer review system, where both authors and reviewers remain anonymous. This practice helps preserve objectivity in the review process. Reviewers are selected based on their expertise in relevant fields, and each must have at least 25 citations, ensuring a high level of academic contribution. The review criteria cover critical areas such as methodology, originality, relevance, and contribution to the field.

Timelines and Process: Following manuscript submission, the initial editorial check is completed within 3 days. Manuscripts are then forwarded to selected reviewers, and the review process typically takes 1 to 2 weeks per round. Authors can generally expect a final decision within 3 to 4 weeks from the initial submission date, keeping IMJRISE on a monthly publication schedule to ensure timely dissemination of research.

Editorial Oversight: The editorial team at IMJRISE includes specialized roles that contribute to maintaining high standards:

  • Editor-in-Chief: Responsible for the journal’s vision, final manuscript decisions, and the integrity of the peer review process. The Editor-in-Chief is required to have a minimum h-index of 30 and an i10 index of 30.

  • Deputy Editor-in-Chief: Supports the Editor-in-Chief and steps in as needed to make critical editorial decisions. This role requires a minimum h-index of 20 and an i10 index of 20.

  • Managing Editors: Oversee the operational aspects, including submission tracking and author communications, ensuring efficiency. A minimum h-index of 10 and an i10 index of 10 are required for this role.

  • Associate Editors: Handle peer review assignments and bring expertise in specialized areas, requiring at least 50 citations to ensure the high quality of assessments.

This structured process and transparent policy at IMJRISE reinforce the journal’s commitment to high-quality, impactful research publications across disciplines.
