About EMR

About the Journal

IEEE Engineering Management Review (EMR) is a premier outlet for the research and practice of engineering, technology, and innovation management, with a tradition of more than fifty years of publishing. EMR has built a reputation for high-quality, evidence-based practice-oriented publications.

Aims and Scope

EMR, a journal of practice, presents state-of-the-art thinking and practices from original contributions that are based on technological developments, actual practice, or a strong academic theoretical foundation. That journal seeks evidence-based high-quality research articles.

The intended audience includes those who:

  • Have an interest in management as a profession
  • Manage the activities of engineers and related technology professionals
  • Hold managerial or strategic leadership responsibilities
  • Seek upward-bound opportunities as technology professionals
  • Prepare for leadership responsibilities in managing engineering, technology, and innovation
  • Manage programs and projects
  • Operate in a global environment
  • Seek entrepreneurial opportunities with innovations and technology

EMR Departments

We encourage original submissions from thought leaders in practice and academia. The journal structure is grouped into eight topical engineering management departments with assigned associate editors to each—although associate editors can and do handle multiple topics.

EMR publishes articles in a number of topical areas within the “TEMS… people enabling product success …” vision. Each of these topical areas incorporates one or more “departments,” as outlined below:

  • Moving Product/Services from Idea to Market
    – Technology, Innovation Management, and Entrepreneurship (TIME)
  • Identifying and Implementing Successful Projects, and Systems
    – Models and Methodologies
    – Supply Chain and Project Management
  • Integrating Technology for Capability and Productivity
    – Information Technology
  • Developing from Engineer to Leader
    -People and Organizations
    – Leadership and Strategy
  • Balancing the Norms of Society, Government, and Regulators
    – Sustainability

Abstracting & Indexing

Surveys have shown that the EMR is a highly respected and valued journal in providing insights in management of engineering and technology in a worldwide economy. An IEEE survey in 2014 showed the EMR ranking right under the Harvard Business Review. Currently, EMR is ranked highly in Scopus and is a Q1 journal based on SJR score.

EMR is published six times per year (bimonthly). All articles are published at IEEE Xplore®
