Review Processes

Kirklareli University Journal of Engineering and Science Reviewer Guide
The Kirklareli University Journal of Engineering and Science publishes research and review articles in both Turkish and English.
The peer review process begins with an invitation sent via the DergiPark platform by the Editor or Associate Editor to experts in the relevant field.
Reviewers who receive the invitation are required to respond within 7 (seven) calendar days, either accepting or declining the request. Failure to respond within this timeframe will be interpreted as a decline of the invitation. In such cases, the Associate Editor may send a reminder and allow additional time or assign a new reviewer.
Reviewers who accept the invitation are expected to complete their evaluations within 15 (fifteen) calendar days.
Reviewers must complete their evaluations using the “Manuscript Evaluation Form.” Filling out this form is mandatory. If necessary, reviewers can also upload additional files containing their comments, suggestions, or requests for revisions. These files will be forwarded to the authors for necessary changes.
The identities of reviewers involved in the evaluation process are kept confidential and are not shared with third parties under any circumstances.
If a manuscript is revised, an additional invitation will be sent by the responsible editor to reviewers for reevaluation. Upon accepting this invitation, reviewers are expected to complete their evaluations of the revised manuscript within 15 (fifteen) calendar days. If no feedback or suggestions are provided within this period, the responsible editor may forward the revised manuscript to a different reviewer for assessment.
Reviewers of the Kirklareli University Journal of Engineering and Science are considered to have committed to adhering to the journal’s ethical principles. Detailed information on these principles is available on the journal's website: https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/pub/klujes/policy.
