International Journal Writing Tips
Scientific writing is a mandatory part of a lecturer’s or student’s work. In fact, submitting to journals is also a requirement for graduation or promotion of lecturer functional positions.
Students or lecturers are encouraged to publish their scientific articles in national and international journals. But first, there are some things that should be considered in writing journals, especially international journals.
Here are some tips for international journal writing;
