About

J. Univ. Hist. Stud. is an international, peer-reviewed, scientific journal published in two issues a year, in June and December. In the journal, we take under review the scientific studies which are written in Turkish and English. However, the articles that use foreign archives and are sent in English will be given priority in the publication phase (after they successfully pass the peer-review process). If the English articles are not prepared in an academic style and according to grammar and writing rules, the relevant article will be rejected in the preliminary examination. Such articles must be prepared with a professional approach.
June volume deadline for submission is April 1, December is October 1. (from 2024). If the number of articles is sufficient for the issue to be published, the journal may be closed for article acceptance at an earlier date. The Journal is closed to article submissions between April 1 - June 30, and October 1 - December 31.
In the journal, in the field of History and Archaeology studies are published. The DOI number is assigned to all the articles published in the Journal.

J. Univ. Hist. Stud. will no more accept the articles that were written after being presented in oral and/or written form at symposiums and congresses. Articles to be written in this way can only be published in pre-announced special issues. (from 2023)
The pre-review process takes place over a period of 4-12 weeks. At this stage, the article appears in the "in secretarial" status. While the manuscript is in secretarial status, messages sent by the author regarding the status of the manuscript are not responded to.
At least three reviewers are assigned for article evaluation.
JUHIS continues its publishing life with the voluntary support of our reviewers and free of charge. It is expected that the field experts who are sent a reviewer request will fulfill this role as much as possible. For this reason, if they do not fulfill the role of reviewer without any reason, firstly, the relevant field experts will not be invited to be a reviewer again for a year and the papers they will send during the same period will not be evaluated. If they refuse to be a reviewer for the second time, they will not be invited to be a reviewer again and their work will definitely not be reviewed.
Article Withdrawal: If an article is withdrawn by the author except for preliminary control, the articles submitted by that author will not be accepted for publication for three years. Article withdrawal can only be done at the Pre-Review stage.
