About the Journal

 

Scientific publication of the Faculty of Engineering of the Catholic University of Salta, Argentina, created in 2006 and published under the imprint EUCASA (Ediciones Universidad Católica de Salta).



Objectives and scope

 

Cuadernos de Ingeniería is a journal published since 2024, under the Online First model (up to and including 2023, its publication periodicity was annual). Online First is a model in which articles are published online as they are accepted, without waiting for the publication of an issue or volume. This model offers authors the opportunity to share their research results more quickly and accessible, and readers the opportunity to stay up to date with the latest developments in their field. Depending on the change in the publication scheme, Cuadernos de Ingeniería publishes the articles immediately after being approved and laid out, generating an annual volume made up of all the articles published in continuous mode during that period.

The articles published in Cuadernos contain results of research, technological developments, reviews of an engineering topic or other contributions to the academic and scientific discussion. In addition to topics directly related to the disciplinary field of Engineering in all its forms, contributions are received on topics such as engineering education, the performance of the profession, ethics and values in engineering, the interrelations between engineering and politics, culture, economy, society and the environment.



Languages

 

The languages of the journal are Spanish and English. Each paper includes title, abstract and keywords in both languages.
