Author Guidelines

Authors are required to complete the registration form as thoroughly as possible, ensuring all fields marked with an asterisk (*) are filled in. Once all form text boxes are filled, click the “Register” button to proceed with the registration. This will bring you to the online author submission interface. Here, click on “Make New Submission” to begin the submission process. The four-step process for online submission are listed below:

  1. Step 1 – Start: The author must acknowledge the points in the Submission Requirements section and also provide a Comment for the Editor. In this initial section, the author should check the acknowledgement box as the corresponding author and the box confirming that they have read and agreed to the Privacy Statement.
  2. Step 2 – Upload Submission: To upload a manuscript in Microsoft Word file to this journal (do not upload as PDF file or other formats), click “Upload File” on the Upload submission file item and choose your manuscript document (.docx), then click the "Upload" button and wait until the file has been uploaded successfully. After uploading the file, select the file type, which can be an article text, similarity report, research instrument, research materials, research results, transcripts, data analysis, data set, source text, or other options to describe the type of supplementary file that does not fall under the previous categories.
  3. Step 3 – Enter Metadata: In this step, Authors’ metadata should be entered including to the marked corresponding author. NOTE: all of the Authors’ data must be entered here, not only the corresponding author. After that, the manuscript title and abstract must be uploaded by copying the text and pasting it into the textbox. The author must also include a list of keywords, supporting agencies, and a reference list.
  4. Step 4 – Confirmation: The author must review the final manuscript document uploaded in this step. To submit the manuscript to the ICESE journal, click the “Final Submission” button after verifying the document's correctness. The corresponding author or primary contact will receive an acknowledgment email of submission and will be able to track the submission progress through the editorial process by logging into the journal's website.

After this submission, the Author who submitted the manuscript will get a confirmation email about the submission automatically. Therefore, Authors are able to track their submission status at any time by logging in to the online submission interface. The submission tracking includes a status of manuscript review and editorial process.
