About the Journal

ISJ is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal published by the Green Research in Advanced Civil Engineering (GRACE) group, Civil Engineering Department, Federal University of Technology, Minna, Nigeria. The journal publishes research that helps make engineering cleaner, more sustainable, and less wasteful.

Although the journal grew out of civil engineering, it is open to all engineering disciplines and related fields. We welcome original research articles, review papers, and case studies on topics such as sustainable materials and construction, renewable energy, carbon reduction, recycling and upcycling, waste valorisation, environmental and water engineering, green manufacturing, and digital tools for sustainability. Interdisciplinary work that links engineering with environmental, social, or economic concerns is especially encouraged.

Our aim is to give researchers, practitioners, and postgraduate students a credible outlet for work that supports a greener future, while keeping the review process fair, rigorous, and reasonably quick.
