Institute for Research and Development, SSRU Introduces “Journal Finder Tools” to Support International Academic Publishing

The Research and Publication Division, Institute for Research and Development, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University, introduces “Journal Finder Tools”, a collection of resources designed to help researchers, faculty members, and students identify and select suitable academic journals from six leading international publishers.

These tools support users in finding journals that align with the scope and content of their research by using information such as the article title or abstract. They can help simplify the process of identifying potential target journals and preparing manuscripts for submission to international publications.

• Emerald Publishing – Writing for Emerald
A resource providing guidance on journal selection and manuscript preparation, particularly for research in business, management, and the social sciences.

• IEEE – Publication Recommender
A recommendation system that helps researchers identify suitable journals and academic conferences for work in engineering, technology, and information-related fields.

• Springer Nature – Journal Suggester

Careful journal selection can help improve the suitability of manuscript submissions and support the quality and international visibility of research publications.
