Submit Your Paper to IJTRM

Getting your research published should not be complicated or unnecessarily slow. IJTRM (International Journal of Technology Research and Management) offers a simple, transparent, and efficient publication process designed for researchers, academicians, postgraduate students, and industry professionals who want their work reviewed properly and published within a reasonable timeframe.

Whether this is your first submission or your fiftieth, our objective remains the same: to make the process clear, keep authors informed, and minimize avoidable delays throughout the editorial and peer-review process.

How to Submit Your Paper

1. Prepare your manuscript using the official IJTRM article template available on the Download Article Template page. Using the correct template from the beginning can help avoid unnecessary formatting revisions later.
2. Review the Submission Guidelines carefully to ensure that your manuscript formatting, structure, figures, tables, references, and citation style comply with journal requirements.
3. Prepare a clear abstract and relevant keywords. The abstract is often the first part reviewed by editors, reviewers, and readers, so it should accurately summarize the purpose, methodology, findings, and conclusion of your research.
4. Submit your manuscript online through the official Paper Submission portal by entering the required author information and uploading the manuscript file.
5. Receive submission confirmation by email once your manuscript has been successfully received by the editorial office.
6. Initial editorial screening is conducted to evaluate the manuscript for scope, formatting, completeness, originality, and basic academic suitability before peer review.

• Using an outdated or incorrect manuscript template.

A Note for First-Time Authors

If this is your first research paper submission, you are welcome to submit to IJTRM provided that your manuscript meets the journal's scope and submission requirements. Many postgraduate students, doctoral scholars, and early-career researchers are unfamiliar with journal formatting and submission procedures when publishing for the first time.

Authors who are uncertain about manuscript formatting, scope suitability, required documents, or submission procedures are encouraged to review the journal guidelines carefully or contact the editorial office before submitting. Clarifying requirements in advance can help prevent avoidable delays during editorial screening.
