How to Do a Special Issue in Thane — Request a Special Issue for Your College

Professors, departments, colleges, universities and research groups in Thane can propose a special issue of JMVRA on a focused theme — often linked to a conference, a research project or a department's specialisation. You act as guest editor(s) for the theme; JMVRA runs independent peer review and publication.

Request a special issue in Thane

  1. Define the theme — a focused topic, its rationale, and the subject areas it covers.
  2. Name the guest editor(s) — usually the professors or department leading the theme.
  3. Send the request — use the request form and choose special issue in the description.
  4. Editorial review — the editorial office reviews the scope, fit and guest-editor details.
  5. Terms in writing — once the proposal is accepted, scope, responsibilities and schedule are confirmed in writing.

Publish the special issue

  1. Call for papers — the guest editors invite papers on the theme.
  2. Submission — papers are sent in the journal template for the special issue.
  3. Independent peer review — each paper is screened for similarity and reviewed; acceptance is never automatic.
  4. Publication — accepted papers are published open access, each with a permanent paper ID.
  5. Optional Crossref DOI — available on request for published papers.
