Publication Frequency
The European Journal of STEM Education (EJSTEME) publishes one volume per year on a continuous publication basis.
Articles are published online individually as soon as they have successfully completed the peer-review, editorial, and production processes and are ready for publication. Published articles are assigned to the current annual volume and become part of the journal's scholarly record immediately upon publication. Under this continuous publication model, authors and readers do not need to wait for the completion of a traditional issue before an accepted article is formally published. The annual volume remains open throughout the calendar year, and eligible articles are added continuously as they become ready for publication.
Each new annual volume begins with the calendar year. The journal maintains a regular and continuous publishing schedule and clearly identifies the volume, publication year, publication date, and DOI of each published article.
