Impact factor

Launched in March 2018, THMT does not have an impact factor yet. Be assured, THMT is working hard to meet this industry preference, however, trends in the industry indicate the JIF will not be the leading indicator for journal selection and articles will and are being amplified on their own merits. This is why THMT is highly active across social media. We believe authors want their work disseminated and amplified across audiences and relevant ecosystems around the globe.

  • In 2021, THMT manuscript Acceptance Rate was 56%.
  • The number of Days to Accept a final manuscript in 2021 was 54.

Waiver policy

THMT has a waiver policy for authors from lower-middle income countries as per the World Bank (click here for details). We give fair consideration to all submissions, and believe this should not be linked to the ability to pay.

Where limited funding is available to authors, THMT can provide a complete or partial waiver to authors on request, AFTER, an article is accepted. We review papers based strictly on MERIT. The quality and contribution it makes to the sector supersedes the APC. We believe this is paramount for fair and open exchange.
