They must also confirm that neither this manuscript nor one with substantially similar content under their authorship has been published or is being considered for publication elsewhere, including electronically in the same form, in English or another language, without the copyright holder's written consent.

§  Please confirm that this journal is an open-access publication and that the Article Publication Charge (APC) is 300.00 USD (VAT Excluded); for more info click HERE.

§  Every author has consented to let the corresponding author act as the main point of contact with the editorial office in order to examine the proof and revised manuscript.

§  The submission file is in one of the following document file formats: WordPerfect, RTF, Microsoft Word, or OpenOffice.

§  The Author Guidelines, included in About the Journal, contain stylistic and bibliographic guidelines that the work complies with.

Authors must check out whether their submission complies with each of the following requirements as part of the submission process; entries that do not meet these requirements may be returned.

Manuscript Preparation

Only English may be used for submission, and manuscripts must be prepared using correct vocabulary and syntax. To receive a single submission ID number, a manuscript must be submitted just once. A single manuscript may lose its possibility of consideration if it is submitted more than once. A cover letter with the title and name of the author or authors must be included with the manuscript.

Before submitting their work, authors whose native language is not English should ensure that it is written in idiomatic English. Please use proper English when writing; either American or British terminology is acceptable, but not both.

New Submissions

The ENGINOM journal accepts submissions entirely online, and authors will receive step-by-step instructions on how to create and upload their article files. In order to facilitate the refereeing process, writers have the option to submit their work as a single file. Referees may utilize this Word document (*.doc or *.docx) to assess the text. The primary manuscript file should contain all figures, tables, and supplemental data.

References

The ENGINOM references format (see paper template) must be followed when providing the references list. The year of publication, the journal shortened title or book title, the chapter title or article title, the volume number or book chapter, the author or authors' names, and the pagination must all be included, if appropriate. DOI use is strongly encouraged.

Revised Submissions

Although there aren't any hard and fast rules about formatting, all submissions must have the following components: abstract, keywords, introduction, materials and methods, results and discussion, conclusion, funding & acknowledgement, and conflict of interest. Tables with captions and artwork.

Manuscript Submission and Verification

The authors are advised to submit their paper in ENGINOM format for revision, regardless of the initial submission's file type, and it may be editable. Make sure the text is laid out as simply as you can. The authors are strongly encouraged to use the "spell-check" and "grammar-check" tools for the submitted work in order to prevent needless mistakes.

It is assumed that manuscripts have never been published in print or electronic form before and are not being considered by another publication. At the time of online submission, copies of related or potentially duplicated materials (including those with substantially identical content or employing the same data) that have already been published or are being considered for another publication must be submitted.

Title, abstract, keywords, introduction, materials and methods, results and discussion, conclusion, acknowledgements, and references must all be included in a file with a maximum size.

Order of Authors

1.      The first author is the one who has contributed most to the paper and/or taken the lead in authoring.

2.      The initial author should typically consult with other authors when deciding who should be an author, the sequence of authors, and who should be acknowledged.

3.      The list should be filled up by everyone else who meets the requirements for authorship, using their last names in alphabetical order.

4.      People who have contributed significantly to the analysis or writing (that is, more than just detailed comments on subsequent drafts) have the right to follow the first author right away; if there is a noticeable difference in the magnitude of these contributions, the order of these authors should reflect that.

5.      A footnote can be used to indicate whether each author believes they have made an equal contribution to the paper.

Further details can be found in the Policies section of the journal.
