Diversity and Internationalization

IP

IPSUMTEC maintains a rigorous commitment to academic excellence and scientific diversity. Our editorial policy prioritizes a plurality of perspectives and thoroughness in peer review, ensuring that content management remains independent and representative of the global scientific community.

Composition of the Editorial and Arbitration Body (2026 Metrics)

To guarantee the objectivity and international scope of our publications, we rely on a network of 219 high-level academic specialists, distributed as follows:

  • 42% International: Contributors affiliated with institutions across 28 countries, spanning regions of Ibero-America, Europe, North America, and Asia.
  • 53% National External: Researchers from various higher education institutions and research centers in Mexico, external to the Tecnológico Nacional de México (TecNM) Campus Milpa Alta.
  • 5% Local: Academic staff affiliated with the Instituto Tecnológico de Milpa Alta (ITMA), in compliance with international standards that limit institutional endogamy.

Note for Evaluators: 95% of our expert body is external to the publishing institution, thereby ensuring the integrity and independence of the arbitration process.

Global Reach

Our editorial collaboration network brings together an international body of researchers, scholars, and professionals who ensure the scientific rigor, thematic relevance, and highest editorial quality standards required by Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus. This multidisciplinary committee is composed of specialists from 29 countries, reflecting the global reach and epistemological diversity of our publication:

Algeria, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, Spain, United States, Philippines, Guatemala, Honduras, India, Maldives, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Switzerland, Uruguay, and Venezuela.

This multinational composition strengthens double-blind peer review, scholarly validation, and evaluation processes, ensuring the internationalization, visibility, and quality standards required for indexing in high-impact databases.
