Introduction

The following is a representative list of journals for research publications. This is an active list, and will change periodically. The last update is shown at the bottom of this page.

Assumptions

1. This is only a representative, and not an exhaustive list of research journals.
2. A publication in a journal not on the list requires input from faculty to establish the quality of the research journal or publication.
3. This is an active list, and will be updated periodically.

Evidence of Quality

Some measures that were used to establish the quality of journals were:

• Scholar's list - AIS
• IS Journal Quality Assessment Using the Author Affliation Index, CAIS, 19, 710-724, 2007
• Gorman, M. F., and J. J. Kanet. (2005). “Evaluating Operations Management-Related Journals
     Via The Author Affiliation Index,” Manufacturing and Service Operations Management, 7(1),
     pp. 3-19.
• Saunders, C. & Benbasat, I. (2007) Editor's Comments, MIS Quarterly, Vol. 31 (3), pp. iii-xviii
• Eigenfactor
