About the Journals
IEEE Engineering Management Review (EMR) is a premier outlet for the research and practice of engineering, technology, and innovation management, with a history of more than fifty years of publishing. EMR has built a strong reputation for high-quality, evidence-based practice-oriented publications. As a journal of practice, it presents state-of-the-art thinking and practices from original contributions that are based on technological developments, actual practice, or a strong academic theoretical foundation. Published six times a year by IEEE, EMR is indexed in major databases such as Scopus and Web of Science. Further information is available at https://www.ieee-tems.org/engineering-management-review/
Research-Technology Management (RTM) is an award-winning, Australian Business Deans Council (ABDC) “A” journal in the innovation, R&D management and technology management areas. RTM is the academic journal of Innovation Research Interchange (IRI), publishing practitioner-oriented innovation, R&D and technology management research since 1957. RTM publishes scholarly articles that are practitioner-focused but grounded in contemporary academic conversations. RTM seeks original empirical articles that connect innovation and strategy theories to the practice of innovation management.
