How do I publish in a HAC-approved journal?
The exact number of required articles is set by OAK and varies by academic field and degree type (PhD or DSc) — check the current requirements on oak.uz or with your dissertation council. The one rule that always applies: the article must be published before the defense date, and the journal must be on the OAK list at the time of publication. Each journal's submission requirements, scope, and contact details are on its own page.
