APC
The Scientific Professional Journal of Engineering and Technology embraces a fully open-access model, ensuring unrestricted utilization and reuse of all published articles while duly acknowledging the authors.
To sustain this model, authors must cover a one-time Article Processing Charge (APC), encompassing expenses related to peer review administration, article production in PDF and other formats, dissemination of papers across various platforms, and other publishing functions. No fees are imposed for rejected submissions, and there are no additional charges based on article length, figures, or supplementary data.
In contrast to conventional publishers, open-access publishers such as the Scientific Professional Journal of Engineering and Technology do not rely on subscription sales for revenue. Instead, we ensure free accessibility to all articles. Consequently, an Article Processing Charge (APC) is applicable upon acceptance for publication, ensuring the sustainability of this open-access approach.
Article Processing Charges
- Foreign Authors: 50 USD
- Indian Authors: INR 1850
It's important to note that authors bear any transaction fees incurred. Publication decisions at the Scientific Professional Journal of Engineering and Technology are entirely driven by editorial criteria, remaining unaffected by fee payments. Corrections to manuscripts are provided free of charge if requested within 3 days of online publication under the "Issue in Progress" section.
Once an article is assigned a volume, issue number, and DOI, changes will be implemented only after payment of applicable charges, equivalent to 50% of the article processing fees. Authors can pay via Direct Deposit or online methods like net banking, NEFT, or IMPS.
Notably, payments by cheque or demand draft are not accepted.
