Journal Meeting


As the chairman of the RU Publication Committee on Citation and Impact Factor, I was involved today with the discussion on journal consolidation with the journal editors at UPENA. It was an interesting meeting as everyone was excited with the prospect of submitting our university journals for possible registration with Scopus or ISI Thomson. As the university is also focussing on lecturers to publish in Scopus & ISI journals, it is also natural that we must also register our journals with these two publication database companies. Prof Bakar who is the Assistant Vice Chancellor was also there to brief the editors.
