The International Journal of Engineering and Technology is an international premier peer reviewed open access engineering and technology journal promoting the discovery, innovation, advancement and dissemination of basic and transitional knowledge in engineering, technology and related disciplines. We follow "Rigorous Publication" model - means that all articles appear on iet-journals.org after full appraisal, effectiveness, legitimacy and reliability of research content.
IJET is an open access journal which means that all content is freely available without charge to the user or his/her institution. Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the articles in this journal without asking prior permission from the publisher or the author. This is in accordance with the BOAI definition of open access.
Our vision is to be the world's most dominant and extensively read engineering and technology journal. Our mission is to lead the debate on engineering and technology engage, inform, and inspire researchers and professionals in order to streamline economic and broad-spectrum benefits of engineering and technology. We aim to revolutionize industry by promoting legitimate and effective research.
The International Journal of Engineering and Technology is published monthly, issues appearing on the 1st Monday of each month. Original engineering and technology articles are published in full on iet-journals.org, with no restriction on word counts and open access to all. The editors reserve the right to reject a paper or make changes to the content if there are serious problems with the content or with violations of our publishing policies.
We have global reach with users submitting and downloading several publications from iet-journals.org every month. We audit the performance of research articles, using a wide range of indicators to assess their impact on readers and their dissemination to the wider world. Our team is based in the UK, although we also have editors elsewhere in Europe, Asia and in the US.

Reviewer evaluates the appropriateness of the manuscript for the Journal. Manuscripts that are deemed to be inappropriate are returned without further evaluation. Reviewer evaluates the quality of the manuscript. Manuscripts determined to be of low quality are returned without further evaluation. Reviewer electronically makes editorial suggestions within the text using red or underline to distinguish comments from original manuscript. Reviewer returns manuscript to the Editor with an evaluation and comments.
The reviewers' evaluations and comments are compiled by the Editor for disposition and transmittal to the authors. A decision is made usually within 2-3 weeks of the receipt of the manuscript.
The Editor will advise authors and classifies the manuscript into one of the following categories:

Please note a number of manuscripts can be rejected on the grounds of priority and available space. Therefore authors are advised to submit their manuscripts as soon as possible in order to allow time for review. It should be noted that invitation to submit a revised manuscript should not be assumed to automatically mean that acceptance will automatically follow.
On occasions the Editors may expedite the review process for manuscripts felt to be of high priority in order to reach a rapid decision. Such 'fast-track decisions' will normally occur within one week of receipt of the manuscript.
The Editor's decision is final. If, however, authors dispute a decision and can document good reasons why a manuscript should be reconsidered, a rebuttal process exists. In the first place, authors should write to the Editor outlining their case.

The International Journal of Engineering and Technology (IJET) aspire to select and publish, through peer review, the highest quality research. In order to achieve this goal, the entire peer review and publication process should be thorough, objective and fair.
Journal reputation depends heavily on the trust by all stakeholders in the fairness of the peer review and publication process. A formal code of ethics, outlining guidelines for good behavior and proposing solutions to ethical dilemmas facing Authors, Editors and Reviewers, can build stakeholder trust and improve journal reputation. With this goal in mind, the IJET Code of Ethics is designed to be a comprehensive policy for peer review and publication ethics in the International Journal of Engineering and Technology.
The Code describes IJET policies for ensuring the ethical treatment of all participants in the peer review and publication process. IJET Authors, Editors and Reviewers are encouraged to study these guidelines and address any questions or concerns to the IJET Editor, editor@iet-journals.org. These guidelines apply to manuscripts submitted to IJET starting Sept 1, 2011, and may be revised at any time by the Editor.
