About the Journal
International Journal of Industrial and Product Design Engineering is a peer-reviewed online journal launched in 2023 that is devoted to the publication of fundamental studies in industrial design and engineering, with an emphasis on operational research. Journal particularly welcomes papers from newly emerging areas as well as traditional fields that form the core of industrial engineering. Journal welcomes all major types of scientific communications original research articles, review articles, editorials as well as short communication that fall under the focus and scope of the journal. The nature of information expected from contributions should preferably be based on the practical aspect of the subject.
