Peer-Review Process
The Multidisciplinary Engineering Science Open employs a double-blind anonymous peer-review system, ensuring that both authors and reviewers remain unknown to each other throughout the review process to prevent bias and maintain objectivity.
Each manuscript submitted undergoes an initial editorial screening to verify its relevance to the journal’s scope, originality, structure, and compliance with ethical standards. Manuscripts that meet these criteria are then assigned to two or three expert reviewers in the relevant field.
Reviewers evaluate the submission based on:
-
Originality and contribution to knowledge
-
Methodological rigor and clarity
-
Relevance and technical accuracy
-
Quality of data analysis and interpretation
-
Clarity of presentation and logical organization
-
Significance of findings and potential impact
The review process typically takes between 2–4 weeks, depending on reviewer availability and manuscript complexity. Based on reviewers’ recommendations, the Editor-in-Chief may decide to:
-
Accept the manuscript as is,
-
Accept after minor or major revisions, or
-
Reject the manuscript.
All editorial decisions are made impartially, based on scientific merit and alignment with the journal’s mission. Authors receive constructive feedback to improve their work, and revised manuscripts are re-evaluated before final acceptance.
