Client

I work in environmental engineering and need an SCI paper published within three months. I have no grant funding or prominent co-author. Which journals could I target?

CrushSCI

Yes. We will first screen for feasibility against the 90-day deadline, then identify comparable papers without grant support or prominent co-authors. The final shortlist will prioritize research quality and journal scope.
