Aims and Scope
Fusion: Journal of Integrated Research & Case Studies is an international, cross-disciplinary, scholarly, open access journal that serves as a progressive forum for studies pertaining to multidisciplinary research and in-depth case studies. The journal publishes peer-reviewed research papers, comprehensive reviews, communications, case studies and short notes, with no restrictions on the length of the papers.
Fusion aims to embolden researchers to share their experimental, computational, and theoretical work across natural and applied sciences, business, management, computing, engineering, social sciences, humanities, and beyond. Our emphasis is on in-depth, detailed content that bolsters understanding and allows for reliable predictions and impact assessments of global changes and developments. In line with the commitment to interdisciplinary research, Fusion strives to align with and contribute to the broader scientific community’s efforts to address global challenges.
Furthermore, Fusion offers several unique features:
- We welcome manuscripts that propose novel research ideas and innovative projects.
- We accept electronic files or software detailing calculations and experimental procedures as supplementary material if they cannot be published in a typical manner.
- We highly consider manuscripts designed for a wider audience concerning publicly-funded research projects.
