Description
Authors must submit manuscripts through the system to be considered published in a journal by Universitas Buana Perjuangan Karawang. Submissions should be prepared following the Author Guidelines in the Submission Menu. The manuscript may be returned to authors without a scientific assessment if they do not meet all submission requirements, are not in the correct format, or cannot be downloaded reliably. The author should be using the 80% primary reference from the reputable articles in maximum 10 years.
Submissions must represent the original and independent work of the authors. Each new submission is assessed by Principal Editor using Turnitin to determine plagiarism rate conforms with JTMMX. We will only accept a manuscript with review if it contains good content, exceeds our word limit, is correctly formatted, or is poorly presented and unclear.

All manuscripts are subject to peer review, and authors can expect a decision, or an explanation for the delay, within 2 months of receipt. The corresponding author should submit the revised manuscript within 4 weeks if a revision is invited. Principal Editors make the final decision based on the information gained through the peer-review process.
We ensure that the reviewed manuscript is treated confidentially before being published, as explained in publication ethics.
