Peer Review Policy
The International Research Journal of Innovation in Science and Technology (IRJIST) follows a rigorous double-blind peer review process to ensure the academic quality, originality, integrity, and relevance of all manuscripts considered for publication.
Under the double-blind review system, the identities of both authors and reviewers are concealed throughout the review process to prevent bias and ensure objective and impartial evaluation.
All submitted manuscripts undergo an initial editorial screening to assess their relevance to the journal’s aims and scope and compliance with submission guidelines. Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are reviewed by a minimum of two independent expert reviewers with relevant subject expertise.
Reviewers evaluate manuscripts based on:
- Originality and significance of the research
- Methodological rigor and technical quality
- Relevance to the journal’s aims and scope
- Clarity of presentation and organization
- Ethical compliance and research integrity
Based on reviewer recommendations, the editor may decide to accept the manuscript, request minor or major revisions, or reject the submission. The final publication decision rests with the Editor-in-Chief or the assigned Handling Editor.
The peer review process is conducted in a confidential, fair, and unbiased manner, in accordance with internationally accepted academic publishing standards.
