To foster the production of high-quality academic work, the Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY) Graduate Program invited Prof. Dr. Edy Herianto Majlan, AMIChemE, from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) to conduct a workshop titled “Writing and Publishing Scientific Articles in Reputable International Journals.”
The workshop was attended by 40 participants, primarily faculty members from the UMY Graduate Program who were designated to conduct research as outlined in the Strategic Performance Indicators (IKS). Doctoral students, particularly those nearing publication, were also encouraged to attend.
Sri Atmaja P. Rosyidi, M.Sc.Eng., Ph.D., P. Eng, Director of the UMY Graduate Program, expressed the workshop’s aim to dispel the notion that publishing is difficult. She emphasized the importance of consistent effort and breaking down barriers to achieving successful journal publications.
The workshop covered four modules: Preparing for Quality Research, Step-by-Step Guide to Writing Scientific Articles, Introduction and Practice with Mendeley Software, and Publishing in High-Impact Journals Without Fees.
Prof. Dr. Edy Herianto Majlan, AMIChemE, highlighted the significance of journal publication as a means of sharing research findings with the broader academic community. He emphasized that it is a responsibility of scientists and educators to disseminate their knowledge.
