EDITORIAL BOARD

It is made up of the Editor-in Chief, the field editors and the English editor. They are highly regarded researchers at the national and international levels. The majority of them are external to our institution. The Editor-in-Chief selects and proposes to the Editorial Board the prospective members for their incorporation into it.

Editor-in-Chief

It is appointed by the Rector of the Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas, and must be a widely recognized researcher with an appropriate academic trajectory and with sufficient professional contacts both inside and outside the University and with experience publishing, evaluating and editing scientific and academic material.

He or she is responsible for the coordination of all the activities that enable the CienciaUAT Journal to publish high quality scientific material. He is under the supervision of the Editorial Board and is supported by the English Editor, the Field Editors and all the Journal staff members for the fulfillment of all his or her duties.

 

Field editors

Their job as scientific and academic quality assurance specialists is voluntary, autonomous and independent of the Journal management, which enables them to be critical and efficient in their professional practice. They are in charge of reviewing all the submitted manuscripts in their field of expertise. They decide on the relevance and originality of the manuscripts, and ultimately on their acceptance or not, based on the editorial policies of the Journal. They also propose and approve the reviewer(s) for each of the manuscripts.

The Field Editors can also serve as a third reviewer, upon the Editor’s request, in case there is discrepancy in the decision made by the first two reviewers, or in the opinion expressed by the reviewers and the authors.

 

English editor

The English Editor is appointed by the Editor-in-Chief. His or her main responsibility is to ensure the correct use of the English language in the different sections of the Journal. Therefore, he or she must be highly proficient in English, either because he or she is a native English speaker or because he or she holds English academic qualifications as proof of his or her high level of English proficiency. He or she must preferably be an experienced researcher with a widely recognized scientific and academic trajectory.

The English Editor is also a member of the Field Editors team in his or her expertise field.

Main responsibilities of the Editorial Council

The Editorial Council is a collegial body which is responsible for the establishment of policies and guidelines for the registration, dissemination, promotion, storage, distribution, commercialization, sales, exchange and donation of all University publications as well as the compliance of all authors’ rights, and their supervision and enforcement.

The Editorial Council of the UAT is made up, as stated in its Agreement, of the Rector, who will serve as its President; the Research and Postgraduate Secretary General, who will serve as Deputy as necessary; the Finance Secretary; the Management Secretary; the Academic Secretary and the President of the Editorial Board, who will serve as technical secretary; two academic representatives appointed by the University Council as proposed by the Rector.

All the members have voice and voting rights. In addition to that, the President has a quality voting right. There is a Technical Editorial and Publications Coordination available to this Council. Such Coordination, which depends on the technical secretary, provides the technical editorial support needed for the improvement of the UAT’s publications quality. The Coordination is also responsible for the storage, dissemination, distribution, commercialization and sales of all the UAT’s publications.
