REVIEW PROCESS 

Each paper is first assessed by the editor in charge within TWO (2) weeks after submission. A paper that does not fulfil the content requirements will be rejected immediately and the authors will be notified through email. If the paper fulfils the content requirements; the editor in charge will identify TWO (2) independent reviewers within TWO (2) weeks. Then, it is sent to the reviewers for double-blind peer review. The reviewers are given FOUR (4) weeks to review the paper and submit their report. In the case that the reviewers do not submit the report within the given time, a reminder will be sent to them. Other new reviewers will be identified if no review report is submitted after six weeks from the assigning date. The reviewers’ recommendation will be used by the editor in charge to recommend the paper’s acceptance or rejection. Upon receiving the reviewers’ report, the editor in charge will provide his/her report to the Editor-in-Chief within TWO (2) weeks. Authors will be notified through email on the acceptance/rejection of the paper. For accepted papers, the authors are given TWO (2) weeks to address the reviewers’ comments.
