Focus and Scope

Focus

The Indonesian Journal of Applied Science and Engineering (IJASE) is a peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal. IJASE is dedicated to advancing knowledge and disseminating high-quality research at the intersection of applied science, engineering, education, and social science, with a strong emphasis on the development and application of knowledge for the benefit of society.

The journal serves as a multidisciplinary scholarly platform for academics, researchers, educators, and practitioners to share original work that bridges theoretical foundations with practical applications across diverse fields. IJASE recognizes that solving complex real-world problems increasingly requires collaboration across disciplines — from engineering systems and applied technologies to educational innovation and social transformation. Contributions that demonstrate interdisciplinary thinking, innovation, and societal impact are especially encouraged.
