How do I publish in a HAC-approved journal?
A PhD dissertation defense requires at least 2 articles, and a DSc requires at least 5 (with at least 2 in Scopus Q1–Q2 journals), all in HAC-approved journals. The article must be published before the defense date, and the journal must be on the HAC list at the time of publication. Each journal's submission requirements, scope, and contact details are on its own page.
