Peer Review Process

Peer review is the major quality maintenance measure for any academic journal.This journal operates a single blind review process.All contributions will be initially assessed by the chief-editor for suitability for the journal. Papers deemed suitable are then typically sent to a minimum of two independent expert reviewersworking in the same field to assess the scientific quality of the paper. The chief-editor is responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance/rejection/revision of articles. The chief-editor's decision is final.PUJM welcomes the original research article, long papers and short papers which are not previously published or submitted for any journal or conference publication. The review process is fully confidential.
