Engineering and Public Policy: Your Research Impact: Journal Citation Reports

Journal Citation Reports

Journal Citation Reports (JCR) won't reveal anything about your research per se, but lets you evaluate and compare journals using citation data drawn from approximately 12,000 scholarly and technical journals and conference proceedings from more than 3,300 publishers in over 60 countries/territories. Journal Citation Reports is the only source of citation data on journals, and includes virtually all specialties in the areas of science, technology, and social sciences.

JCR can help you:

  • Focus on desired subject categories, enabling you to review journal titles and key performance indicators in the category
  • Compare multiple journals based on a chosen indicator
  • Evaluate the performance of journals in which you or your organization has published research
  • Recognize trending journals in key research categories
  • Identify the ideal journal in which to publish your forthcoming research
