Journal of Engineering and Technology Management

Published/Hosted by:  ELSEVIER
ISSN: 0923-4748
Country: Netherlands
Impact Factor: 0.967 (2012)

About Journal
The Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (JET-M) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
The journal links engineering, science, and management disciplines. It addresses the issues involved in the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the strategic and operational objectives of an organization. It covers not only R&D management, but also the entire spectrum of managerial concerns in technology-based organizations. This includes issues relating to new product development, human resource management, innovation process management, project management, technological fusion, marketing, technological forecasting and strategic planning.

Submission Process
Submit your article at:  http://ees.elsevier.com/engtec        

General Guidelines for Authors
Manuscripts should be MS Word formatted, double spaced, with wide margins and printed on one side of the paper only. All pages should be numbered consequently. Title and subtitles should be short. References, tables and legends for the figures should be printed on separate pages. Divide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1 (then 1.1.1, 1.1.2, ...), 1.2, etc. (the abstract is not included in section numbering). Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing: do not just refer to "the text". Any subsection may be given a brief heading. Each heading should appear on its own separate line.
A concise and factual abstract of not more than 100 words is required. Immediately after the abstract, provide a maximum of 5 keywords, using American spelling and avoiding general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example, "and", "of"). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible. These keywords will be used for indexing purposes.

Journal of Business Ethics

Published/Hosted by:  Springer
Print ISSN: 0167-4544
Online ISSN: 1573-0697
Country: Netherlands
Frequency: Quarterly
Impact Factor: 1.253 (2012)

About Journal
The Journal of Business Ethics publishes only original articles from a wide variety of methodological and disciplinary perspectives concerning ethical issues related to business that bring something new or unique to the discourse in their field. Since its initiation in 1980, the editors have encouraged the broadest possible scope. The term `business' is understood in a wide sense to include all systems involved in the exchange of goods and services, while `ethics' is circumscribed as all human action aimed at securing a good life. Systems of production, consumption, marketing, advertising, social and economic accounting, labour relations, public relations and organisational behaviour are analysed from a moral viewpoint. The style and level of dialogue involve all who are interested in business ethics - the business community, universities, government agencies and consumer groups.
