Article Processing Fees

The International Journal of Next-Generation Engineering and Technology (IJ-NGET) is committed to providing a platform for high-quality research in engineering and technology. To sustain the journal's operations, including editorial management, peer review, and publication, an Article Processing Fee (APF) is required for each manuscript that is accepted for publication.

Fee Structure:

1. Standard Article Processing Fee:

   • Authors are required to pay a fee of $250 upon acceptance of their manuscript. This fee covers the cost of peer review, editorial assistance, and the production of the article.

2. Discounts and Waivers:

   • The journal may offer discounts or waivers on the processing fees in certain circumstances, such as:
     • Authors from developing countries.
     • Students or early-career researchers.
   • Authors wishing to apply for a fee waiver or discount must submit a request during the submission process, accompanied by a justification for the request.

3. Payment Process:

   • Detailed payment instructions will be provided to authors upon acceptance of their manuscript. Payment can typically be made through [insert payment methods, e.g., credit card, bank transfer, etc.].
   • Authors are responsible for ensuring that all fees are settled prior to publication, and no manuscript will be published until all fees have been paid.

4. Refund Policy:

   • Once the article has been accepted for publication, processing fees are non-refundable. In cases where a manuscript is rejected or withdrawn prior to acceptance, a portion of the fees may be refunded, subject to administrative costs.

5. Use of Fees:

   • The Article Processing Fees contribute to various journal operations, including but not limited to:
     • Peer review management.
     • Editorial and publishing services.
     • Maintenance of the journal's online platform and accessibility.
     • Promotion and dissemination of published research.

6. Transparency:

   • IJNGET maintains transparency regarding its fees and expenses. Authors are encouraged to reach out if they have questions or concerns regarding the fee structure.

Conclusion: The Article Processing Fee enables the International Journal of Next-Generation Engineering and Technology to maintain the quality and efficiency of the publication process. We appreciate the understanding and support of our authors as we strive to enhance the dissemination of innovative research in engineering and technology.
