Authorship and Contributorship Policy

Authorship should be limited to individuals who have made a substantial contribution to the conception or design of the work; or the acquisition, analysis, or interpretation of data; and who have participated in drafting or critically revising the manuscript. All authors must approve the final version of the manuscript and agree to be accountable for all aspects of the work.

Individuals who contributed to the research but do not meet the criteria for authorship (such as technical assistance, data collection, language editing, or funding acquisition) should be acknowledged as contributors in the Acknowledgements section.

The NTU Journal of Engineering and Technology follows the COPE guidelines. Any changes to authorship (addition, removal, or reordering of authors) after submission must be approved in writing by all listed authors and the Editor-in-Chief.
