Goals and Accomplishments
Our main goal was to maintain schedule and publish every issue till end of last
month of quarter and collaborate with authors affiliated in institutions around
Poland. The second, was part of obtaining minimal recognition in polish
scientific society.
We managed to publish issues on regular basis and our journal obtain some
recognition at least within young fellow researchers.
Recognition by
Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education
One of our main goals for 2015 was to become recognized by Polish Ministry of
Science and Higher Education. PJSP was a subject of audit and evaluation by
commission. As an result PJPS was included on Ministry List of Evaluated
Journals and awarded 5 points.
