Based on the internationally recognized and prestigious evaluation results of the scientific quality of the journals, a number of interdisciplinary professors' councils have applied to raise the benchmark for articles published in journals of VAST when calculating the score of published works in the process of reviewing the applications of Professor and Associate Professor candidates.
In the first 6 months of 2021, the journals published on schedule, followed the set targets in terms of both quantity and quality, completed the new appointment /reappointment of leadership positions and the edition council for the new term (2021-2025). Feedback is from leading experts in Vietnam and the world, so the quality of articles is strictly censored and highly appreciated by experts. The quality of English is guaranteed.
Vietnam currently has 07 journals indexed in the Web of Science system and 06 journals indexed in the Scopus system, of which VAST has 5 journals listed in both WoS and Scopus citation systems./.
